This guy's funny, I looked very closely all over the marble, but I couldn't see any pontil at all. Was the pinch/crease line smoothed out in the marble making process?
Thank you so much for posting this! 🙂 I live only a couple hours away from Anacortes. There's probably tons of these marbles in western Washington. I was also always curious about how to differentiate these guys from other vitro/JABO products.
Thank you! 🙂
It is really interesting to see the variety that Japanese transitionals come in. Both Dave's and mine seem to have a lot more white than usual. It's almost like the white is the base glass and not the swirls.
