Agreed! It is a very nice looking marble but a WVS imho. More opinions are needed and welcomed. Marble--On!!

This one is 11/16”. Have a great day everyone! Marble—On!!

I have been slacking off lately. I had some spare time today so what the----Hakro---LOL. Enjoy! Marble—On!!

Stop it Chad, you are the go-to here on the board. By the way, what is shoe grease? Marble on my marble collecting friend. Yes, a very nice cork!! Marble--On!!

Machine made marbles have been polished for some time. I urge you all to research how marbles are polished and take heed when looking at what you may have purchased. They are showing up today in groups/lots of marbles and many sellers do not even know what they have been selling. This is just a simple primer and I hope to see some more examples posted. In the early days the polishers tried to make the best, just like the Polishers of old “Germans”. This was a fail because you could literally see what was done with the matrix being out of wack. Today, if you do not use a high powered lupe or headlamp, it will be hard to tell. I find a few using my macro camera under flash. Look for different directions of micro scratches, half polished moons and facets along with a dull finish. These are all very hard to determine in hand. The Brick that I am showing, I decided to keep just because it has a big chunk of iron in it which actually will pull towards a magnet—very cool imho. The Master came in a large lot and I just thought that it was a killer Master until my camera told me different. The Sparkler was misrepresented much to the sellers surprise and I received a refund. WHATTT??? People will try to rip you OFFFFF!!! Lets get real, it has been going on for as long as we were human. Collectors are brothers and sisters---family! Marble On my family!!

Well to be quite honest, my first thought was “is that a “Honey Onyx”—very cool”. I have not researched them enough to make a call. I am surprised to see the claim of them all being “bigger”. I always figured that they were 5/8”. More input on these is needed here—I know my pelts but I am in a conundrum on these. All opinions are needed here. Marble—On!!

Here is an Akro Cork on a Akro candlestick holder---It would not light—I tried! Happy Birthday!! Marble—On

I will take a stab at an ID, but clearer images will help a lot. I believe that you have a nice looking Vitro there. I am not the best at individual names but the base glass looks aqua and I will leave it there. All opinions are welcomed and needed. Marble—On!!

Me too, a screwed up multi-colored patch. Marble--On!!

Nice call Ron, I agree--nice marble! Marble--On!!

I will just mention Vacor here. If the base glass is green, it could be a “Green Parrot’. Marble—On!!

I am missing something here. I see a wacky MCS. Just my humble opinion. Marble—On!!

I am comfortable with Vacor “Picasso” on this one. Vacors can get pretty wild, this is a nice keeper for sure. All opinions are welcomed and appreciated. Marble—On!!

Nice Rainbo! I would not stretch this into a named category though. All opinions are welcomed. Marble--On!!

I think that it is a Pelt Rainbo. Marble--On!!

I do not think that it is an Akro—maybe a Vitro—more likely a WVS that go a little “globby”. Follow the purple streak. All opinions are welcomed and needed. Marble—On!!

Left to right. Akro Peltier “bee family” Akro with some odd Jabo traits All opinions are welcomed and appreciated. Nice group, Marble—On!!

These are Master Glass “Brushed glass” white on blue and these are the ones that I believe are in question vs the OP. I do not recall seeing a “Master Made” blue based with white marble in a “Comet” or any other “Master Made” named marble made before they purchased Akro. As said before this week by one of our best—“they are marbles” and anything can happen. Vitro made these dark blue with white, with this big glob of amorphous white opaque stringy glass with a few different colors of transparent based glass—danged if I can remember the name—but they had one. As always, all opinions are welcomed and appreciated---needed as well. Marble—On!!

Nice marble--size matters--does it glow under uv😁. Marble--On!!

I see no Akro or Master here, I would sort all three as Vitro's. All opinions are welcomed. Marble--On!!

I agree--nice marble!! Marble --On!!

I agree--no name memory from me either-- Marble--On!!

It is not an Akro imho--WVS-- I would say Heaton. As always more opinions are needed and welcomed. Marble—On!!

Over one inch is a weird thing—I do not believe that it is a Vacor. WVS imho. The right hand one is a Pelt in the first set. The greenish one is pretty cool—I can’t wait for an ID on this one. All opinions are needed and welcomed. Marble—on!!
