It's Vitro but most opals have clearer glass and you have to backlight them to see the fire in the glass. I hope this helps. some opals have a little bit of veneering on them so w/o backlighting i can't be sure.

These are verry common colors for an Opal, it even has a bit of av in the green.

x2, seeing Akro also

Blended marble King, I think it has a name but it escapes me R now, it is Vintage but not super old. I think @Melissa would know exactly what it is, I seen a Marble like it posted here not to long ago. Ruby something I think ?? Not sure ??

"Fried" marbles. They used to sell them when I was a kid. Now people make them. They get the marble hot in a pan and dunk it in cold water making it fracture.

Agree, Master IMO

Agree W Melissa, MK here as well

I see you make your own boxes out of that outdoor padding as well, stuff works perfect for marbles

L to R Latticinio, solid core, Latticinio, Onionskin. solid core ??

Peltier IMO

A Antique German Mica W somewhat of a dark core, many were made like this., common. Looks like it's in good shape. They came like this in amber, transparent etc.. every color the Germans made them in, a manufacturing thing but they were into production not necessarily perfect uniformity, I imagine some kids liked the core.

Akro to me

it's a beauty fer sher

X2, nice mib

X2, agree W Akro slag

Guess I blew that one, I thought there was no way it could be Alley, never seen that low quality in one before !! Looks like it was a dug marble or somethin.
