kbobam Posted September 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 Yours too! I've been wondering why doubles aren't more popular. Even nice ones frequently sell for cheap. Maybe they look 'damaged' to some people, but to me it's all about 'character lines'. Whoops. zz sneaked one in there while I was writing slowly. I'll have to check that one out in a minute.

I like old handmades and a polished one doesnt scare me as I think it helps bring out the old beauty in the old girls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeeperman Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 Here's a few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbobam Posted September 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 Oh yeah! That's a neat one too! I don't know enough to say that's an outrageous color, but it 'feels' unusual and fun. And it's also a great example of how the 'character line' can suddenly stop one pattern and start something else. ( : (And skipping one ahead, since you mentioned 'polish', I should admit to trying an experiment here. Seemed like a good idea at the time to see if a little bit of non-stick cooking spray rubbed into the marble would make it look nice. Didn't seem to hurt anything, but I'll have to give the mib a cleaning and try a similar shot to see.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbobam Posted September 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 More nice stuff! This is great! Glad to see that there may be a large percentage of the small percentage of 'double-lovers' right here! Would definitely like to change the title of this thread to "Show Us Your Double Ingots", since I'm really enjoying this and hope others are too.

jeeperman Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 There is definetly a lot going on in some of them! Someone here has some double Sparklers that made me drool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryT35 Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 Here's a couple......... A Sparkler and a Popeye (the clear is almost all inside a very small window). When I first saw the Popeye I thought it was a messed up Marble King. Then I back light it and WOW all clear inside! Enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope you checked that one out ok! Yes "Show Us Your Double Ingots" may have been a good choice title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbobam Posted October 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2010 Definitely did check it out! Might have been misplaced in the crowd, but the 'neat one/outrageous color' note was all for you. ( : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
