Marbleized

I typed @steph and when I clicked on it in this entry your profile popped up.

Just wondering if these are Master marbles or foreign. The small one is .62" and the larger one is .70". They both have the same kind of blues. The larger one has a streak of black of which the edges look translucent. It also has what looks like cream colored strands. The smaller one is almost entirely covered by strands except for maybe a little over a ¼ of the marble. Thank you for your help!

Found a marble in a jar that stood out from all the others. Thinking it is one of those wire pulled foreign marbles. It is .58" and has a dark green translucent base and probably white ribbons. Looks like a green brain. Need some help with the ID. Thank you!

Drooling over the bricks!

I was going to post some of mine but I need to measure them first. I think some are just a little over ½ an inch.🥴

Not a problem Chad. I didn't even think about it because of all the cool pics!

Nice! When I think of peewees I think of cateyes. I have a couple of patches, but figured that there were some gorgeous ones out there. Thanks!

I just got a bunch of marbles that included some peewees and wondered what is out there. What companies made them? Also is less than a ½ inch the definition of a peewee? Thank you!

All the Peltiers!! Looks like a fireworks show!!😁

You mean he is reclaiming the chair that you took from him.😆

Wow, those last pics are cat eyes? Amazing. I'm so glad you all allow me to post my common marbles that I think are special. LOL! Thanks!

OMG! I just saw the size! Never saw them that big! If you get a chance to post a pic next to a pencil that would be super awesome for scale. I think maybe 4 might be able to fit in my jar. 😆 Thanks again.

Aren't the ones with the greenish tinted base asian cat eyes? Sometimes I think those are neat because of the color combos even if they are common. I bought these for the jar, but the more I looked at them the more I fell in love with them. LOL.

Were you thinking about Anacortes Vitros?

Who would have thought that a cateye would be so valuable. But, they even have an entire book dedicated to these. To be respected and definitely not be overlooked.

I got two bananas for the price of one. (Still a banana, right?) Also, is this a vitro or foreign? Glass is clear (yellow tinge is coming from the walls reflecting a little sun). Is this a common thing? Thanks.

Start pumping in those pennies! 😉👍

Thought this Peltier was interesting because the bubbly creamy yellow base looked like it might be uv reactive, but it turned out that the ribbon was the sparkler under blue light.

Couldn't put my finger on the color. Butterscotch is more like it. Other things came to mind, but caramel and butterscotch are more palatable names. 😝

I appreciate these posts about misidentified marbles and the problems with eBay on monitoring. I don't mind the "rants". Thanks.

Yes, that's the one.

So that Peltier Blue Angel that is posted by the same seller, is that a Jabo? Just wondering.

Just had to comment on Massmarbler's marble stand--nice floral design. Looks like a coffee press filter. Great re-purpose, whatever it is.

Here's a dumb question... Has anyone ever tried refiring a marble? Does it crack, turn a different color, melt? Just curious.
