Yes and that’s not a common color combo or base glass. It’s the best one I’ve ever seen. Killer Top Shelf Keeper for sure🔥

Thank you!!!!
Is it then called "Japanese Transitional"? Is it a Yasuda?

Sorry Parm. I definitely led you a stray on me thinking it was an Atmosphere 🔥

No worries at all. This was fun.
Now, what is it then? A contemporary of some sort? Seems odd being the only one in a 350 pound lot of Vacors

This one is a blunt question. You said “I’ve been told it was a Buttermilk” I’m just curious who told you that? I’m not calling them out I’m just wondering how they came to the conclusion that it was. I’m stumped because the color combo to me doesn’t match up with a Buttermilk🔥

She is the Moderator of the Marble Sub Reddit on Reddit. I always take it with a grain of salt when somebody claims something so firmly. I posted a screen shot of what she said.
I went to Alan's Marbles, and there are examples very close to mine
I think this one has been nailed!

These were all sold in mm sizes.
One inch meaning the smallest, 1-3/4 the second and 2" the largest.
Compare a 1-3/4" to a 2" and be surprised.
Back in the day the when the 1" were sold @ToysRus there may have been an ad to send in and get a larger one, I have never seen this ad.
I still believe it to be true though and would love to see one if any help is out there.
The marbles were also (imho) sold at glass shops in the Old Malls.(no proof yet)
This is where the paper/advetisement above in this post came into play with this type.
I have measured true Atmos @just over 7/8' and just under 1-1/16".
Marble--On!!
Great info,
What do you think I have here?

Pretty cool, pretty small as well.
Hand Gathered-no doubt.
Japenese--maybe.
Lets ask @shiroaiko and@YasudaCollector
I considered a Yasuda, but I haven't seen this colour

Around 1 Inch my marble collecting friend (plus or minus)--they vary quite a bit- 1/8" inch or even more.
Marble--On!!
The reason I ask, is, if the smallest atmosphere marbles WERE 1", then the larger ones in this picture have to be 3+ inches, and I can't find any posted that large.
