Possible veiligglas
-
This loose pontil with ring pattern is Navarra, made with the leightons method They are usually purple-based, but other colors have also been used, such as transparent green, amber etc. Usually, European slag has a linear pontil and German ones, can have a polished pontil, like this one underneath.

It looks like a mushroom
-
I think of ravenswood
-
And, I think there is another reason for the tolerance on these marbles, i.e. is the time taken and the skill with which they were made
-
Yes, as I said in another thread, small chips and chipping are much more tolerated in hand-made than in any machine, due (as Ron rightly says) of their age. I have seen rather high bids made even on German handmade with very marked chips
-
The color is very similar to Heaton lime, very nice...
-
I agree, it has always been a matter of debate I think the terminology "end of the day" is quite subjective, even if it actually has his purpose.

White white or rather cream? -
Heaton
-
Well, surely in the hand there is a more direct contact, of course....some, the rather occuped ones, are also very nice
-
Wire pulls in theory, should have a wire beginning and end with that wire, without "touching", but it is also true that it is not always so
-
Wire pull veiligglas, usually have wires, some may seem swirl after millions and millions they have done, but they hardly look like slag
-
VERY similar
-
I exclude veiligglas in every way
-
Yes, many may have produced it, so as I found many in Heaton
-
Curiosity - That color in Heaton is called "sweet potato"

Jabo

The seam that I think I glimpse in the last photo of the first group, Master suggests
-
The last photo of the first group, and the first two images of the second group, also make me think of Master, but only minimally
-
Yes, jabo or champion
