I just love backlighting Agates. The first two are 7/8ââ. The third one is 3/4". Sometimes you can see the hit-marks in handâsometimes not. Backlighting them will reveal their true nature and history. Have you ever wondered about the damage that you do not like on your favorite glass marbles, well these could have been the culprit. Glass killers these were. The last one is very tactile. I cannot member feeling the facets on an Agate like this before---very cool to feel them( for an old dude with crusty fingers especially ). This one had no hit-marksâodd reallyâto me at least. I wish that I could get an image of the facets on this oneâit is just full of them. It appears to have some sort of inclusion in it--I am calling it a dinosaur bird finger bone. Enjoy and---Backlight them All!!!! MarbleâOn!!

This is backlit Chad--from my old lightbox--there is some white light leakage. A new revelation though--some green showed up. It is not pollution. "Motor Oil" --Really??? This is why I ask for the experts. A new marble for me and a new name as well--bonus! Thanks all!!! Marble--On!!

This one is just under 5/8â. I purchased it thinking âwhat a foolââit is a VacorâNot!!âMy spider senses were working that dayâLOL. You never know until you get it in hand do you? The white is OpalâI will never be able to prove it thoughâjust my gut feeling and experience. The brown is actually transparent. If you back light this one it appears more of a red than a brownâI triedâcould not get a good shot. This is my bestâwhat do you all think?? I just love this stuff---a new one to me at least. MarbleâOn!!

One inch?--It is not a Vacor, not an Akro, not an Alley--not a Master made----- I agree--Vitro. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more with this one. Nice marble!! Marble--On!!

This one is a Popeye. I had to edit the second image somewhat. No doubt on my part. I see no Hybrid evidence however. Marble--On!!

There is something about a simple white slag that lights me up---not too common--just a great thing to hold and look at, look at --look at--look at--Mesmerizing in hand. Here are some images that are backlit--under UV and just plain light. This one is one inch Simple Simonânot!! MarbleâOn!!
