Murmeln, Schusser, Klicker, by Renee Holler

Sounds like it might be more about games than about particular marbles but ???

Those tutti frutti colors literally made my drool. Well, not drool. But salivate!

For no particular reason -- a moonstone ring someone posted on facebook. I like!

To try to make it mildly relevant: I still wonder what it was that kids would have called "moonies" circa 1900. Would it have been a marble made of moonstone? Might it have been onyx? What else could have been a candidate? Which translucent stones did people make marbles out of? Or should I be thinking of something made of glass. Like mellonballs.

Awwwwwwwww

Congratulations to the happy couple!

Lots of glitter in spite of the lighting.

Sure looks Akro to me

fwiw

This one is elegant!

Putting balloons on the shopping list now.

lol - yes - how fun!

Thanks for the bigger pix, Mindy.

Buh-ling!!!

Here is a Kevin Nail I love. Specially made for me. A gift from a friend.

It's a very tight auger which you can see from the side. From other angles it looks like honey.

Is it "fumed"? Oh gosh, I need to ask someone. That's something a person should know about their Kevin Nail marbles, huh?

Hi Lindsey. I moved this thread to the main forum to get more people to have a look at it.

Here's another option you might pursue -- it's a forum which specializes in contemporary marbles. It has many members who make marbles.

The shepherd's crook on this one makes me think of Cairo novelty. Ric? At least I'd say swirl not cork.

stellar!

the other look to be a scott patrick frankenstein

How fun! Congrats.

I need a marble fix!

Nice. A special honor to be commemorated on a marble.

That's a nice range of color.

So sharp!
