Marbleneophyte

I think that's it! I googled "double ingot akro" and found some examples with the same color combination. Thanks for the help!

Thought about this one?

I'm going to buy one and try it. Even if doesn't work my wife will get use out of it cleaning her jewelry. I'll be sure to post the results. Thanks again Steph!

Thank you Steph.

A while back I traded with a guy for a box of marbles. Many have what appears to calcium or some other kind of mineral deposits. I live near the beach so its quite possible they have been exposed to salt water. This gold & red swirl is one of the more interesting ones. Does anyone know what it is? It's by far the most interesting. Is it worth the effort to continue to clean it? I've tried Bar Keepers Friend which contains oxalic acid. I've had few soaking in vinegar for a couple of days which has helped some. Does anyone have any advice on cleaning dug marbles? I thought about buying a sonic cleaner and giving it a try. Has anyone ever used one to clean marbles?

Thanks Steph!

These 3 seem to have the "fire" Steph was talking in her tutorial. I had them with the Moss Agates but now I'm wondering if they could be Realers? They're about 3/4".

Thank you Ron.

This one measures 21/32. Master? Imperial??

Thanks Ric!

Thanks guys. I've gotten better but some of the Jabos still confuse me. Can either of you recommend a good book or online resource to ID them? Steph, thanks again for the seam tutorial! It's very, very helpful tool!

That's for sure!

Pretty marble, but is it old or new? Measures 19/32.

Thanks Steph! You're the best!

The poles are bare on this lovely green swirl. It measures 5/8. Any thoughts about the maker?

Thanks Steph. I'm moving it to the Jabo section.

Another one from the mystery pile. Thoughts?

It's 19/32. I love the color combination...

Steph, thank you so much for the Seams Tutorial! It has helped immensely! This one still has me a bit confused but I think it's a Master.

Thanks guys!

This one is a beauty. Any thoughts on the maker??

Thanks Steph!

These 2 came from the same lot with several vitro and a few akro. The one on the right looks like a helmet that didn't line up quite right. The one on the left I'm thinking is a Tri-Lite but its unlike any that I've seen before. Am I on the right track?

Thank you Steph!

Here's one more Steph from a little further back that shows a seam. It's hard to get a clear shot of ribbons. Thanks for your help!
