Hi all. I'll regularly scan through a huge pile of discards from sorting. I guess from looking at such big piles, some good ones always get pulled, so I'll go over those again just in case. Found this one last night and saw it had a pontil. From what I see online, this is a line pontil, corresponding with early machine made Europeans. Although, the swirl is very concentric and even, like has been spun by hand. Has a little wear, but is a gorgeous marble in light. A little over 5/8" dia. Thank you.

Not uv reactive. I had compared with carnelians, but looks different.

Vitro confirmation is good for me. Thanks.

Just came across this one and looks like a possible variant of the Buttermilks recently posted. Touch bigger than 5 /8"dia. Thanks

Hello all. Start by saying this was a very tough marble to get pics of to show detail, hence why handheld, my apologies. Its a touch over 5/8" dia. Very hard to see, but there is a red almost corkscrew swirl to it. An old Akro? Thanks.

Whenever I get more than one of the same marble that is M+, it always makes me suspect if its a new copy of something vintage. Usually JABO. These aren't giving off a JABO vibe, more of a Vitro Tri-Lite or Tiger Eye feel, but they are so shiny and perfect that I'm suspect. 5/8" dia. Any help?

So this is considered a Serpent? Im only familiar with the small light blue ones named Serpents.
