Four newly acquired Pelts - I'm not sure whether they quite count as clowns or are just clownish. They make me smile at least
-
I've been enjoying sorting through the big bag of Champions. They're not showy marbles but I think they're under-appreciated as a manufacturer because they're so ubiquitous.
-
That's lovely John.
-
Consensus seems to be Veiligglas:
-
More Champions - white in a transparent blueish glass:

Nice work Jelle
-
Thanks Steph - I'll stick all three in the Veliglas thread. This forum is the only real source for European marble information (beyond German hand-mades).
-
Thanks both - familiarity and experience then? I've little of both, but based on size, colour and pattern I'm guessing these are from the same factory?
-
It's her design not his . It's an impressive piece of work for a 14 year old, but yes it could be more stable.
-
Thanks Steph - that looks right. What were the big pointers? Size? Colours? Pattern?

WV Swirly? A big one approx: 13/16ths or 21mm. No cutlines, Three long shallow cold roll marks. Strongly delineated swirls on an off white/light green base. Orange spot is a reflection! Thanks

Thanks - I'm quickly realising just how little I know and how much I've got to learn
-
That must have been an experience! I wandered through the car show this morning (too busy for full car shots - but I took a few details): Mercedes: Morris Minor: It was worrying when cars of my childhood were exhibited as classic cars...
-
I need reasons to use 'Crepuscular' more often.
-
Thanks - yes Conqueror makes sense!
-
Thanks - No obvious cutlines but I think I need a loupe. I'm not sure my eyesight is as good as I thought it was until I started looking at these things
-
A bit blurry - the rear: No obvious cutlines
-
Slightly smaller than average (still waiting for calipers but about 13mm). Orange tint in photo is misleading - it's a true deep purple / dark violet. I'm clueless on this one. Chance it could be European as it was bought in the UK but came with a couple of definite peltiers and vitros. Thanks

Rainbo?

Three orange on white based swirls that don't really fit with either group:
-
More Champions I've colour sorted - I'd describe them as 'Sand': A lot of swirl variation and some size variation:
-
Lovely example Ed
