You guys are great! Thanks for the replies. It's possible that it could be German..?? The only reason I say that is because my Mother is from Germany and I have a lot of other German items, toys, jewelry and such. It's been packed away for a very long time. The "Banana" in this marble is more on the surface than in side. I hope this is a better pic so that its visible. It almost looks like it was applied. Thanks again ya all.
