Light pink on Transparent blue shooter .76"
akroorka replied to NeozLilBallz's topic in Marble I.D.'s
Well, You made me pick out some black and white Master Made "Comets". --Thanks for that--I may say "backlight them all" but I obviously never did with these. Amazing what I found. No UV reaction with mine. Yours may be a Vitro. All opinions are welcomed and needed. Marble--On!! -
Purple blue and pinkish on clear bubbly base. .71"

Vitro--yes. Marble--On!! -
Ohh!!! Locked and loaded-- Steely? Marble--On!!

Yes, my fault. I have a few and I knew that they are Pelts--love em-- I just got sucked into a bad name for an ID, I pulled the trigger too quick. I just suck at individual makers names--nuff said. Here is my best one for all you to enjoy—the base glass is opal—check yours out. Dang—beat out by a name—I knew it when I saw it----my fault!! Bring it on Steph!! Oops, I just checked the size, 7/16”, and found a better one. “Peltier Tuesday” is coming up. Marble—On!!

X3 Marble--On!!

Yes, I suck at names---and research---today at least--LOL There are no Pelt "Sweat Peas". I do like eating Crow--Yummm! Especially from Chad, he serves it up with style. Marble—On my friends!!

Is this a Peltier Moody Blue? .62 Thanks again

It is a nice Rainbo--nuf said. Marble--On!! -
Nice images! I do not think that this one is a Pelt---close, and worth the effort. I have a feeling that is what you were thinking--- I hope that the Peltheads prove me wrong. WVS---a nice one—just my opinion. All opinions are welcomed and appreciated. Marble—On!!

Boy oh boy—great images! I do not doubt that it may be a dug Akro Sparkler. The trouble is –Master Made Marbles had some very similar colors and some of them had very bright colors as well. We are all used to seeing more subdued, earthy colors in Masters—not always the case in my experience----- they can fool you. This marble looks old to me and USA made. I want them all to be Akro but I will say Master Made on this one. All opinions are welcomed and needed. Nice marble!! Marble—On!!

Pelt "Sweetpea" Steph. I am not going to lie--I had to look it up too and I have several. I just suck at individual names. Marble--On!!
-
Does the first one have an iridescent finish ( kind of a chrome-ish shine)? If so it is foreign, probably from asia. I get Pelt vibes on the second one too. The third one. Marble—On!!

Here are some Vacor Sea Turtles, all from the same net. They are all over the place coverage wise and they display with a yellowish green swirl on the surface that is more of a light green than yellow. I would not call the transparent base green as the website does much closer to blue imho. Marble—On!!

Well, I have a lot of pouches in storage and I was digging today and found this one—pretty cool imho. I knew that The OP rang some bells. I like this one better. I do not recall this color in a box but I bet that it was----or will be if I can help it. Marble—On!!
-
OK, I will take the first shot. Akro "Tricolor Patch". Marble--On!!
-
Thanks Al, I have been pursuing a box like this for years. Even needing rebuilding they are out of shot for me and I have bid on some pretty shabby ones😁. I do believe that Akros came in these, other makers marbles as well. An earlier Jobber box for sure just like the “Rosenthal jobber boxes”. They carried a few differernt makers as well. I wonder who marketed the nameless one that you show. Marble--On!!

Light blue Pelts are not an easy find in my world. Here is one that surprised me. I figured it was just a cool big solid with some killer pollution. At just under 13/16” it came in a lot of “Vintage” machine mades. It just looks black in hand---really black with some metal. The first image is under some pretty bright LEDs on a shop light that finds many uses include shooting images. The second one is using fill flash at a macro setting---BANG! Jabo Lawnchair? I will have to invest in lasers for display. Ya never know until the lights come on—lol. Marble—On!!
-
Nice find Schmoozer, Is it a Brick? I have some Akro brick halves that are almost black. Nice marble!
-
I wil second that with a hardy thanks for the hard work as well! Marble--On!!
-
The first one might be of the Japanese (Yasuda) handgathered variety. There appears to be a pinch pontil on the bottom. The second one is a WVS. I am not very good at ID’s on these as far as individual companies go. I will just throw Alox out there because I have not heard it for awhile and I do not know any better😏. The last two actually remind me of messy Pelt Rainbos but it is reall hard to tell for sure.They may both be WVS as well. All opinions are needed and welcomed. Marble—On!!

Yes, That theme has been repeated on pouches with the smooth side of the leather out and on some artificial leathers as well. I like the one with the simple circle, nothing fancy—just “enuf said” with one simple image on the outside. It is pretty cool to have one that you grandmother made for you, a real keeper that one. Marble—On!!
