X2--Nice one! Marble--On!!

Almost all the marble companies used glass cullet that they purchased from a variety of glass manufacturers including some that used this type. There is no doubt some marbles have glass from a maker that used this type including the window makers, the jar makers and the ponds cold cream makers-along with the many others. Marble—On!!

Vacor Rooster X2--nice one! Marble--On!!

I agree lets call in @shiroaiko for an opinion here. Marble--On!!

You did find a weird one here and I agree with @Ric. The way that the brownish glass spreads out is typical of a Vitro made marble but the rest of the colors do not line up. I would not blame Vacor for this one--"Imperial" would be my choice. Imperial imported a whole bunch of marbles from a wide variety of countries--this one could be from Vietnam for all that we know. They are a hard egg to crack. A nice find and a good ask for sure. Marble--On!!

This is a hard, well cooked , glass marble that shows some damage from play. (The glass stayed heated for quite awhile before it was poured to alliviate the bubbles which made the glass more prone to damage) A few moons but not too much in damage. These marbles were made to compete with stone agates and clays many years ago. The color purple is not too common in a Master Made Marble but it does show up. I would lean towards a Master Made Marble here--just because of the damage--which was never quite lethal with this one. I have seen a lot of Masters today--love it! I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more-- Marble--On!!
