  1. Yes, that green undissolved material is sometimes, in fact, many times, mistaken for aventurine, but it is not.
  2. Apart from the fact that even Master Marble, it is said, reached an inch
  3. Well,This is perfect, as it is . I wouldn't even want to imagine giving it to those gentlemen lying down up there 😄
  4. Here is what I found this morning at the flea market, and they are in excellent condition (shooters) The green and white one has a small metal flake on the outside. Nothing fantastic, it's just that he carries it with him..
  5. This is also true. It could be Master Glass, which seems to have reached up to one inch..
  6. It is really a good book, complete, thorough, and well illustrated, as far as historical marbles are concerned
  7. Oh,..unfortunately this marble is not mine, these are photos that I archived a long time ago. Well, the sparklers Akros generally have a diameter between 5/8 and 3/4, but it remains to be seen if smaller ones not exist. Who is 100% sure? Also regarding the Christensen Agate (cac), in the past it was said that this company had not produced shooters, and instead it turned out that they exist, even if in smaller quantities, compared to the smaller ones. So, who can say for sure about your peewee? By the way, what size is it? 1/2? In my opinion, it is an Akro, definitely rare at that small size. These seams in the first photo I show you are from Akro, not Master, in my opinion. The structure in the second photo tells me Akro. The third and fourth photos show two Akro that could resemble yours, even if only slightly, then you will draw your own conclusions. This is just my opinion, I could also be wrong
  8. There could be a certain affinity with this type of Master's, but the OP seems much more substantial to me
  9. Wow, these are fantastic, especially with the light inside... Yes, I remember reading somewhere about workers lying down to work on these, yes yes, right in this book that I own...
  10. Oops,...yes, you're right 😊 grazie it means thank you. When I quote someone, the translator automatically converts it into Italian and I should convert it back but sometimes,...many times, I don't pay attention and send it in Italian (fortunately not the reply...usually) It has probably happened several times and I apologize to everyone for this inconvenience laero21, thank you for your attention,..cute 😉
  11. That kind of surface abrasion on the red (non ox), is probably a sign that the marble comes from an excavation. In any case, in my opinion there is nothing that can directly link it to Akro for sure; in my opinion, it could also be Heaton, with this design. That does not take away from the fact that it is..
  12. In photos 4 and 6 I see really yellow on my monitor, I see a bit of lime in photo 5 In any case, it's Vacor, with that structure
  13. These MK have fantastic colors, I’ll have to decide to chase them more..
  14. Yes, this is extraordinary, it looks like they have fused, on top, a piece of "wood" with the various grains, you can even count how many years it has 🤣🤣🤣
  15. https://www.allaboutmarbles.com/viewtopic.php?t=67773 I don't really agree with this. Here, in the United States, there are marbles coming from every part of the world that you can't even imagine. Including Italian ceramic marbles made by Laura Berretti,...would you ever have said?
