I agree Dave, I was surprised by its size and condition, I Wouldn't have thought you'd have "let it pass" for 24 quid, ah well stranger things have happened 😊

Yes no doubt in my mind antique

Sorry, 7/8", I spotted it in a group on eBay UK, no other interesting marbles to the group, the photo of the group wasn't close enough to show the Ox swirl. I watched them for a week with no bidders, at the last second there was a second bidder, but managed to win for a very modest sum. It is in super mint condition, the Oxblood patch on the left of the image has an unusual extra swirl independent to the swirl at the upper pole!

Wow, sorry guys, n girls, I do swing between various realities, I don't meen any bad to anyone, I guess I just see the world a little different at certain times?, as I guess we all do. I bought a small lot on ebay last week, all modern, with the exception of an old Oxblood Transitional, I'll try to post it in the next day or two, but since the new format I'm having troubles?, Ta peeps.

Ha ha, nice one, I had to google Tom Reed, the only US politician who makes the news in the UK is that fine gentleman Donald Trump. note to self.........take it easy on the Grigio when posting on MC LOL (woops I did it again)

Hi, The Big Boy is back !! , get your Mibbs out Bitches !!!! , let's see those swirls !!! I'm back by popular demand, from the brink!, in a real good place !! , ready or not, here I come, you can't hide, I'm gonna find you, get your Swirs out and let us see them?

Why Oh why run marble auctions then pull them when they get little attention due to Christmas? I was high bidder on a nice Onionskin with Mica, only for the seller to pull 30 listings as nobody was bidding on his 39 other bog standard listings?, I checked out his other listings?, he has 260,000 !!!! Yes 260,000 , and in his wisdom ended 30 marble listings as, I guess he thought he'd loose a few quid due to Christmas?, Oh Dear!!!

I'll guess £330 😂

Wow, the person nearest wins 10% of the final sale?, good luck guys.

Mmmmmmmmmm....and relax!😛

Chris, I was wrong, I apologise, that's all, if there is anything I can do to make it up to you just let me know. Sorry. Mattshaw1953.

I'm back! By popular demand, Mon?, I love you soooo much!!, a personality with oddities!, there is a hope for me yet! 😍😍😍😍 My kindred spirit!, pull up a chair my friend!!!!!

Hello everyone, I'd like to make a public contrition of guilt, for a reply to a post I made the previous evening. I implied a post was "plain crap", I do apologise for this, and to Chris on this matter. i hope this is sufficient for me to not be seen as a Rapist/Serial killer on this board? maybe one day you all may forget my crimes? p.s do you get put on Death row for saying "Crap"? Cheers. Matt.

Sorry, but the OP was plain Crap!, why ask an opinion on an old auction, as if it were still running?, plain weird if u ask me?, to show curtisy to those who bid or plan to bid?, on what?, an auction which ended days ago?, come on guys, get real!!!!

Hi, I'd say "banded string Lattice core", but I'd be wrong, the "real"marble experts will be along in good time!!, I've several listings on ebay with 5 colour cores, the MC community are too enclosed to see new posters!!!!!!!!, if you're not,a "name" you barely get a hit?

Marble 34, I'm not sure what you're aim is for this post?, you've posted a marble after the auction has ended?, but you're question seems to be asking an opinion before the auction ends?, or am I missing something?

This ended way before you're post, not sure why you would ask after auction ended?, the marble had 1 yellow lattice, 1 white lattice, separate from one another, a nice marble, befor the lattice was twisted, forming yellow/white Latticino core?

Hi everyone, Ann, the Lemon meringue is a little translucent, in that you get a hum of light through, if that makes sense?, Disco, I didn't even notice the blue tinge, ha ha, I was too involved with the core☺️.Although there is a slight blue tint, I think it's just slightly later glass, with more clarity? Does anyone know of any old handmades containing Uranium?, not to say it does, I've lost my black light in the house move, just a general question really?, I found a picture on the interweb of 2 swirls but the base glass glowed, it didn't mention weather they were old or modern. Edit:-I found a couple of threads on this, so I guess there is old handmades with glowing base glass, but how about cores? ^^^^^^Oh....why would someone offer to buy a marble, I then ask the said person how much they would offer for said marble, only to not get a reply?, a tad strange I'd say?

Just for a colour comparison

Can any Old handmade collectors chip in with their views on the colour combo, many thanks.
