Another great marble vid from Stephen Bahr

Looking @ the ribbons Alley would be my best not positive ??

NLR's IMO, Zebras would be my best also

It might be one from the infamous "French Drain" dig. It does appear to be a dug marble, maybe this is what you're looking for. I know nearly all the Akro Supermen and Indian Blankets along w/ several strange looking oxbloods were dug @ this site. Not having dug there all I have is word of mouth and a few articles on the subject, I do have one translucent olive based oxblood patch from the dig, some Supermen and an Indian blanket or two but that's it. Somebody w/ a little more insight on this matter than me will chime in, just providing you the info I have "good Luck"

Thanks Ron

Top R may be a transitional, no telling fer sher w/o seeing the other end of the white for a possible cutoff or pinch point. The rest do look like Alley except the one on the bottom L not quite sure ??

Nice Rainbo !!

Lookin kinda loopy for a Pelt, no positive what it is

x2

Pelt Rainbo, Vitro, ??

Thanks for the vid Brother

"Welcome to Marble Connection Chris" Looking forward to seeing what you have ??

I miss work too, I loved my job, I was a shipfitter (welder) by trade then the dreaded disability struck (Back problems). I actually used to sing @ work, kinda funny but being a welder is something I wanted to be since I was a kid. I can say I've done it all except nuke (x-rayed welding) the nuke welders used to weld the stainless piping coming from the reactor when I was in the Navy stationed on the Enterprise in drydock for refueling in Bremerton WA. The crew flew into work and left every day in their own private helicopter they parked on the flightdeck.

Agree, the OP is transparent based type 1 tiger eye w/ veneered colors IMO. I believe parrots should also be a veneered type marble, w/ at least 4 colors not including the opaque white base (some white should be showing, the less the better) VITRO ID GUIDE LINK :: https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/mibzandmore/vitro-agate-id-guide-t35.html

The sales listing looks correct to me. Blocks listed sold marble (carnelian) is translucent and the OP appears to be opaque IMO

Agree, def. not a carnelian or Akro

"Welcome to Marble Connection Ryan" Agree w/ Art on the ID, I believe these are newer type.

A couple tighty whitey Joseph Coats for this "Thüringen Thursday" first one is 29/32nds, second one is a hair overs 15/16ths, not the best but everything on them is as made so fine by me. ______________________________________________________________________________________________

X2, Agree, Akro on both IMO

x2, Alley

Salright, I'm glad you slipped a Jabo in there to show a little different colored av.

av. = Aventurine The sparkles you see in the black ribbons here are called aventurine. It can be added or be the result of a chemical reaction in the glass. There are a few different colors of av. besides silver or blue, green for one. here are a couple peltiers w/ aventurine in them. Peltier isn't the only manufacturer that had or has marbles containing aventurine, it's also used in many contemporary marbles. Contemporary with aventurine.

It's "cooked" heated up then put in cold water. These were marketed as "Fried" marbles but I forget by what company. People do it themselves also so I couldn't tell ya which, still a very common mib. The cracks you see are fractures in the glass.

Imperial IMO
