yep

Alley but later thana carnival. Close though and still very nice!

WVS or not, every company made some that size.

Champion to me. Later one.

Not sure but seems likely to be RW.

Cairo.

Maybe. What size?

Yeah it looks good on my second look too. Call it calligraphy IMO.

Look at the left row of calligraphies in Ron Shepherd's salesman sample box. Where does flame end and calligraphy begin? I would put this marble next to my calligraphies and consider it to be one some days and not one some days depending on how it hit me on that day. It's borderline. Some of the other calligs in this case are less busy than the OP marble, for whatever that's worth.

Sure looks close Rick. Here's some cullet dug at RW by Ron Shepherd. The white isn't as stringy and I don't claim these to be exact matches but we know how marbles vary...

Agreed, Navarre.

Alley is right.

That's 100% Vacor.

Cairo made something similar but most that I've seen were less color and a tinted clear base glass, dirty looking. The pattern is busy for Cairo too. I'm pretty confident it's either Champion or Ravenswood. Glass is nice for Champion, and the white is thready like RW, so I'm going RW.

Great find!

One way to know it's not Vitro is that Vitro didn't make swirls. The closest thing they made that comes to a swirl is the blue devils, which is a flopped ingot or maybe considered by some to be the most basic swirl technically.

St. Marys Alley

What does it say by the green ones? That page doesn't seem to be in the edition I have.

I don't recall one named "cloudy skies", only Stormy skies. Which I would say yours is a weaker version of.

No problem Alta, over at AAM we mention and link to threads over here at MC all the time. Years ago there were problem people (mainly one) that caused a great division but that's long gone and over now. AAM is a tool in the bag, same as MC and we should all feel at home at either and both simultaneously. Both are about helping the hobby along. Thanks for your confidence. I still think it's European.

If it's a cane made marble the color didn't extend to the pontils where it was cut. Not much of a cane. Also it has the soot at the termination pint in the 3rd pic. But it is big, I don't know, either way cane or torch it's a pretty basic job IMO.

The marble is a modern hand made torch marble, maybe someone just getting started. The base used to say Davis where it's broken. Modern also.

Definitely Alley. Looks like one I sold on a facebook group not long ago.

Alley.
