Steph Posted May 14, 2010 Report Share Posted May 14, 2010 Brown? I see a brown band on the side of the ribbon but some looks like brick. Is it possible we are looking at ox? edit: oh now I see you mentioned ox in the subtitle. sorry for missing that before. I'll suggest Alley, but mostly to start the conversation rolling. Do you happen to recall what was said about them in the main chat? If no one else replies here maybe I'll send it over to there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marboman Posted May 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2010 The brown looks like Oxblood to me,but I suggested brown first.Thanks for looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david Chamberlain Posted May 14, 2010 Report Share Posted May 14, 2010 Of course, with only the picture to go by I can't see oxblood in that reddish-brown swirl. Just doesn't have oxblood movement to it from this perspective. You've got them in your hand though. Not seeing Alley. Don't know. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted May 14, 2010 Report Share Posted May 14, 2010 I thought I'd seen one like this recently in an oxblood discussion. I'm not sure where to look for it though. Not having good luck with search engines lately and haven't been saving pix like I used to, due to computer troubles. .... so how much do you trust yourself to be able to tell ox in hand?

Steph Posted May 15, 2010 Report Share Posted May 15, 2010 Bumping it for you and opening it up to the main chat. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marboman Posted May 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2010 Thanks Steph,About all I can offer is more pictures.The oxblood on these marbles is not like Akro Oxblood.There is brown,black and red swirls with swirls that look like oxblood also.The marble I have pictured I believe is Ravenswood.It's the closest I could find for a match in pattern and color,specifically blue and white.Anybody else have these? Thanks Bo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoop Posted May 15, 2010 Report Share Posted May 15, 2010 Mmmmm, I'm afraid I'm not seein' oxblood in there. It looks a little transluscent / transparent... In hand can make a difference... Butttttttt, based on what we see here, I gotta say nope... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I LOVE MARBLES Posted May 15, 2010 Report Share Posted May 15, 2010 Couple look like some in one of these rows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Posted May 15, 2010 Report Share Posted May 15, 2010 I'm not seeing oxblood - just brown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david Chamberlain Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 Also still not seeing oxblood but there sure is a resemblance to those marbles in the 8th row/top of Scott's picture. Sure wouldn't have guessed Christensen previously! David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lstmmrbls Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 Here is one out of the box. The red brown looks a bit more transparent on the ones first posted but very close Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marboman Posted May 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 Great marbles Galen! No Ox but I'm happy to see the similarities your pics and mine Scott,although mine are darker they look pretty good with some of my other CAC swirls.I did find some dark reds and browns, shades of black there too. Thanks everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
