This is a good one for an ID request. I cannot say that I have seen one like it before and I do not blame for the lack of response. I will take a shot at it thoughš. Red transparent base glass, very deep orang-ish/red color into the base of transparent red, nice deep white color. This one took some great hits, nice hard glass. In my opinion it is an older European patch type with thick veneering. The early Asian marbles do not stack up to this one. Odd for sureālove it! All opinions are welcomed and appreciated. MarbleāOn!!

These are not an easy find in marbles. Look for a paperweight that he may like--much easier to find in paperweights. Marble--On!!

Well, it does glow in your image--Great job! Love it--great image! Marble--On!!

Welcome gais to the world of collectable marbles. I would consider these to be millefiori glass. It takes a long time to make them and they do not look too shabby. It takes a multiple amount of glass rods put together to achieve this effect, let alone get them all lined up and put into a sphere. The size of these will matter in the final worth. Nice marbles! MarbleāOn!!

I just love these old agates with hit marks. If you have any, backlight them for a new experience. These are all shooters with no missing stoneāKillers all!! They may be from Germany? MarbleāOn!!

I know that I would. I love the twelve pack mixed----plenty of hot sauce---yummmm! As teens we used to go to Taco bell for a phart contest later in the day. Talk about now, then and later---I still winš¦Ø. even with my wifeš.

Red and an off-white to orangish yellow kind of lol. idk Thanks:)

Not an Akro imho. It appears to be a veneered marble. My first thought was maybe a Vitroā Tomatoā---I do not think so. I think that if this one was cracked in half it would be all white on the interior. (Wrong size?) Eyelashes? All companyās ran with dull shears, I think that the veneered types just showed it less on the finished product. The white showing through at the seams is a good tip when looking for veneering. Chinese checkers? A bunch of companies made them, some much better than others. The Akros that I have seen seem to be dedicated to being the best color wise. The Master Made/Glass Chinese Checker marbles are an easy IDājust a bit weird sometimes. Marble King is a good ID on this one imho. I appreciate all opinions. MarbleāOn!! -
A red slag I agree, shooter size. All of those round, semi round, quarter round marks under the surface and on the surface are hit marks from playing a game of marbles. The missing glass is also a result of a well played with marble. Some one used this one a bunch. There is no original surface left. Pretty cool really. MarbleāOn!!

The "Score!" thread. Post your exciting finds here...
akroorka replied to bumblebee's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
Nice score for sure, I cannot wait to seem some of them indivdually. Make sure to include that 'China". I am drooling down my shirt right now.( not that that is anything newš) Marble On For sure!! -
No Royals or Moss Agates here. The top four images, the two on the left are swirls that may have come from a variety of makers. The top four images, the second in from the right hand, may be an Akro The top four images, the one on the far right is a Vitro Conqueror imhoāmaybe an āExotic Conquerorā. More opinions are needed here. The bottom four rows contain Master Marble Brushed Patches. They are really killer in that deep blue base. All opinion are welcomed and generally needed. MarbleāOn!!

I would say that you have three Peltier "Rainbos" there. Nice group! All opinions are welcomed. Marble--On!!

2 different marbles clear with orange ribbons. Thanks:)

I think that I know what you are thinking. Pelt---those caged cats can fool ya along with some of the Vitro cats. They are some weird cutoffs for a cat eye. My gut tells me that this is an Asian caged cat eye. Does it have any remnants of an iridescent/chromic finish? All opinions are welcomed and needed. MarbleāOn!! -
One at a time may work--Patience my friendsš. Marble--On!!

X2 Marble--On!!

Man you have some big Bluegills in Minnesotaš.
-
Yes confusion for sure. The only way to cear it up would be to get all three side by side in a number of shots. I do not have the marbles--well maybe oneš. Putt- putt- putt- putt- putt--lets plant some corn! I thought Girlscout too but did not know if that was really a Peltier named or not. Marble--On!!

Master X2 Nice one! Marble--On!!
