Those ribbons remind me of a Berry Pink type of a striping , just an observation

I’ve got these two jobs that look like Vitro eight-fingers but they are opaque with brushed ribbons. Maybe they are foreign? I read on the Joe’s Marbles website that Vitro made them in opaque , maybe it’s misinformation. Can anyone help with identifying them ?
-
Very nice ! Would love to see a closer pic !
-
I believe it's nickname is "dragon" if it's a Peltier. It looks good for a Peltier.
-
Thanks Steph
-
Would this Rainbo have any kind of nickname to it ? The base color is grey , with some red and white striping ,

Very cool ! gave it a like

Thankyou Steph !

This set of Vitro have a brushed patch on a clear base with some opaque white filament swirling going on under the surface. Would the be considered Victories ?
-
Thanks for sharing these , I'm really trying to get a grip on the Jackson make and model , but it's tricky . I like their swirl action .
-
Yep I believe It's Vacor , after further inspection , I think I'm seeing that orange peel surface .Probably another " escorpio ". Thankypu WVron for your input !

Ha ha haw Steph that is hilarious ! Thanks for the confirmation guys 👍

Trying to show the seam on this photo

Here's a flamboyant 5/8 " I recently bought online . It has a black base with a fairly bold red swirl, pretty busy pattern. Would I be looking at a CAC here ? Thanks for any responses !

This is a good place to file the Mega Marble "escorpio"

Yikes ! -
Yes it's a Vacor Escorpio ! I can just barely see that oily orange-peel surface . Well done Steph ! I guess it was my own heart that got broken on this one ! Cool looking marble though , it almost makes me want to collect more ...hmmm

She’s usually right ! The odds are in her favor 👍

Thanks for the research ! I'm pretty sure it's a vintage handgathered mib, luckily it's been well preserved , absolutely mint . I'll try to take more accurate photos tomorrow . I trurned up the saturation on one photo and it's a little closer to the real marble , but not enough orange showing yet...
-
You're right , it's not a double ingot ! It's the worst case of cold roll i've ever seen !
-
OK , thanks Steph . I'm going to try to take better photos. I'm not showing the colors right here . The color is so loud, its deafening. That's why I was thinking CAC.
