  1. Here's my novice observations--looks vennered in the 4th pic. There is a gap in the white in pics number 2 and 5 that I've noticed on many Vitros.
  2. Cool sounding box! If you wouldn't mind, I would love to see a photo of it. Thanks Akroorka!
  3. I'm just curious, being a novice at this and not very familiar with Heatons and Cairos of which I probably unknowingly have in my boxes... Are there any characteristics that shout out Heaton and Cairo? From the ones that are pictured, it looks like the swirls are somewhat thick and they loop around. I notice that perhaps some of the swirls may loop so closely that they look more tear drop shaped. Also, the base doesn't look densely opaque (if that makes sense). Just wondering if any of these do in fact make one suspect that a marble is a Heaton or Cairo. Thanks!
  4. Just a couple of marbles from a recent purchase. I just like the opalescence in one and the swirly pattern in the other.
  5. Thank you WVRons! I guess even in the world of marbles things are constantly being updated. It's what makes marble collecting interesting for me- the discovery and the discussion that comes out of such a seemingly simple toy.
  6. Thank you Da Roberto! Yes, it is a cool looking marble! Definitely a keeper for me.
  7. Thank you WVRons! I was thinking that the one that I thought was an Alley might come back as a Vacor. Now that you ID'd it as an MK for me, I can see the patch!
  8. I'm getting a little distracted by your awesome table!😆😉
  9. Hey William, Sorry to hear about the news. But, I'm glad that you caught things in time! The things that doctors can do these days are amazing! I will be rooting for you and a quick recovery! With an attitude like yours, cancer doesn't have a chance! Take care!
  10. Hi Everyone, Just got these two in a bag of marbles and I'm wondering what they are. I've seen the color combo in the first one before, but can't remember where look (.95"). The second one (.90") looks like a Vitro. Thanks for your help!
  11. LOL! I just got a marble like yours yesterday and was wondering what it was.
  12. Hi Everyone, I found some boulders the other day and wondered, aside from the first one, the other marbles are just under 1". So are these all boulders? Also, thinking-- Vitro, Vitro, Alley, MK, MK, Vacor. Thanks for your help!
  13. Never thought about the similarities. Just wondering, could it be that the exotic doesn't have veneered patches and the Tiger Eye patches are veneered?
  14. 🤤 Awesome color!
  15. Just wondering, would this be considered a "fancy conqueror" type Tri-Lite? Thanks.
  16. 😭! Just kidding. It's a cool looking marble and so different from the other Jabos that I have. So I'm keeping it. Thanks WVRons and Da Roberto. And thanks again Ric, Fire1981, and Akroorka, for your help as well!
  17. Sounds decisive, Akroorka! I'll go with that.😉👍 Thanks everyone!
  18. It could be an orange veneer, because in the white part I can see threads so at least part of it must be clear glass, if not the entire base.
  19. Interesting looking Vitro Conqueror.
  20. Great! It will surely take a lot of Popeyes to fill that machine! Just make sure you only put the junky ones in there. 👍
  21. Just to piggyback on this post. Would this marble be an Easter Egg?
