As a unique oddball, I'd find it very collectible. Oxblood, if it turns out that way, would be the added "plus"...nice marble 😊

Some big cats, with one being a wee bit bigger...

Figured so...you can tell the old glass from the new for sure.

I see one at 9oclockish that appears similar if not a twin too mine!

One of my favorites at 7/8, complete with some nice inner chunks 😊

A nice little Japanese transitional I have with a light pink base glass...

July 28th, 2018, "Imperial Packaging" pretty sure you already looked at this. Found it in the archives. Read this and figured I would poke around also 👍

A couple of nicer Imperials I came across...

Right on! Everyone do the CAC dance 🤣🤣

It is a nice looking marble. Definite keeper from a collectors standpoint IMO, regardless of value 😊

First group, second row, second to the last one....

It is very similar to a Swirl I saw Joe's Marbles today....

Happy Akro Friday HTF amythest flowerpot/thumbpot...looks "black" until backlit. My understanding was that some had the artwork and some didn't, leaving me to assume that this version is more desirable.

I believe so 😊

The first pic almost had me blurting out C- never mind....

It's Green....that's all I'm saying....

There's a few more that are deserving of their own posts IMO within this pile also....

We wouldn't want Kermit the Frog too hear the word "Cac" either...

A somewhat worn but nice Japanese transitional I found a few months back.

I know we as collectors here at MarbleConnection have shared various posts pertaining too our Asian counterparts regarding marble manufacturing, history of, etc.... I thought it would be fun to start up a category focusing exclusively on Japanese and Chinese influence in the marble world. I am aware that some collectors like them, and some don't. But one cannot deny the beauty in some of the marbles that have been found or are still being discovered out there. Share your pics and any info that you might want to include along with them.

Glass or Plastic? Any way to acquire information from the seller pertaining to what it could be, or what the seller described it as when for sale? Would be interesting information 😊

I'd go for some yummy pea salad with hunks of cheese like that any day. That's definitely what I miss with family reunions.
