Steph Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 What name would you give it? "Naked ribbon core"? "Naked corkscrew ribbon core"? ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTAndrea Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 Naked ribbon core and a nice one. More than I'd be willing to spend on such but everyone's got their faves. When they have such a pronounced spiral and bright colors, they command a high price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 The most expensive marble I've ever seen a dollar figure for was another naked ribbon core. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ann Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 how about a naked 5 color, almost triple twist, razor ribbon, and over 1"..rare. Yep, I'd like one o' them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hipocritter Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 Naked Ribbon Cores are among the hardest to find of handmade marbles. They usually cost a lot of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'llhavethat1 Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 Yep, definitely a nice marble. The amount of twist, colors, clear glass, and how thin the core is (razor) would make it worth a premium. Like mentioned earlier all it takes is two interested people with deep pockets to drive a price up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ann Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 And if I had deep pockets that there marble would sure be mine . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m!b$ Posted February 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 In the title they say 1"±, and later on, they add a note that it is 1-3/16"...big difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m!b$ Posted February 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 Here are the two most expensive marbles I've ever seen sell on ebay, both sold by Marblealan. One is a floating mica onionskin ($11,100), the other a confetti mica ($10,100). Even though those prices are completely outrageous, if I had the $, I just might spend it on those two marbles.
