Thanks

Oh dear, I'm starting to feel bad for my little glass egg from China that someone hand-made only to be sold in a dollar store in the U.S. :-( Are we absolutely sure that it isn't a 2,000,000 year-old relic that was made by an Australopithecus afarensis as a hand warmer while hunting? On a more serious note, can you help me with these. They have backwards 6's or 9's on them. Thanks.

oops, I meant Easter eggs....I think....

This picture may help. Do they make hand-made marbles in China?

Hi, Can you give me any idea of what type of marble this is? It is oval and there appear to be pontil marks on both ends. Thanks!

Thank you very much.

It's funny. When I saw that picture, it made me think of my own pet. But she was a dog, and my guess is that now they're both enjoying chasing mice and rabbits. Just hope mine stays away from the skunks. She didn't do well at it down here:-) Fond memories though right? I heard on TV last night that kids laugh an average of 70 times a day and adults twelve. They must not have polled the animal lovers:-)

Thank you!

Thank you so much. It was making me nuts! Pretty cat by the way!

These were in the same box. The green one measures 1 1/4". The other two are 1 1/2".

Hi, Can you help me ID these? They measure about 1 1/2". Thanks in advance.

Cool...and then some. Thanks.

Thanks for your help.

7/8"

Thank you.

This photo is a little bit better.

Novice photographer. The marbles are beautiful:-)

:-) I'm glad that I'm in good company. That's what it looks like to me too. So the mystery question is....who signs their marbles that way?

Hi, I have three by this artist, but I can't figure out the name. I'm starting to suffer from marble madness. Magnifying glass in one hand, camera in the other, marbles all over the place, and running from room to room taking pictures before the sun goes down. It is a sight to behold. lol Thanks in advance.

Hi, I think this is a banded Indian. How would you describe the green and brown bands? They seem to have thin black lines running through them. The brown one has a purplish tone to it. There is depth to the colors. I can't find one like this in my marble books. Thanks.

I take it back. Maybe there are some pin prick marks. The camera can see things that I can't. lol

You folks are wonderful! I can't find any pin prick marks on it. It has an overall grainy feel to it.

Thanks Steph!

Thanks, and thank goodness for digital cameras.
