  1. This type of marble has not been posted in quite awhile. A Peltier “Pearlized” Patch—very rare. @ 5/8” these will come with a small variety of base colors—blueish—grayish—whitish—brownish always with the green pearl patch as far as I can determine—this combo that I posted was always my favorite color combo. I am afraid that folks are losing track of what once was a highly desired find, If I could afford it—enough said. The stress cracks in the one that I display are common—just a matter of patch glass cooling vs base glass cooling. Peltier did not make many of these probably due to production problems as I describe above. I hope to see some more history of these rare marbles posted as they need some more recognition lately at least. Marble—On!!

  8. This looks like a "Bee" of some sort to me-- Marble--On!!
  9. Well, if there is any marble that looks like a bad foreign cat-eye—it is a Master Cat’s Eye. I think this one is from over-seas though. Just my humble opinion-- Marble—On!!
  10. Yes--but back in the day Cornelians were called bricks by collectors, especially the dark red ones. This is my stance with "Bricks"--if oxblood is not the dominate color--it is just a very nice swirl😁. Marble--On!!

These were copied so well that a lawsuit ensued and they had to start printing the bottom of the boxes with a heads up stamp under the marble holder--inside. There were quite a few that made it into the market without any such stamping. Buyer beware—only buy these boxes from a seller with a very good reputation. I wish this seller well—it does look like the real deal to me. Marble—On!!
