kbobam Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 Fantastic! There's no way you'd call this anything but a 'Zebra', and yet it seems so wrong. (In such a great way!) Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steph Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 Intriguing marble. I half expected another name to be suggested. Not that I know of any. Just somehow expected it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marboman Posted February 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 Just so there is no confusion the marble to the right in this picture would be what most people would consider a blue zebra.White base with blue aventurine.Bo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbobam Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 Now that you mention it, Bo, the 'name game' here is really kind of interesting. If we were to go into the "Way-back machine" to before the time when any names had been suggested, I'd be more inclined to call your powder blue mib a "Blue Zebra" than the other one. I'm thinking the 'gut' reasoning is that it's the incredible black stripes that should define a "Zebra", and the base color should define the 'type'. With a "White Zebra" of course just being a "Zebra". Both fantastic marbles! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
