winnie Posted February 3, 2013 Report Share Posted February 3, 2013 Didn't know they exist with 2 colors,or is it very common?Maybe an error..... I've never looked into this kind of marble. Anyway i will not throw them away anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marbleseeker Posted February 3, 2013 Report Share Posted February 3, 2013 I've seen them but never really questioned it. You will find lots of anomalies in machine made marbles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winnie Posted February 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2013 Those are just air bubbles,because the base glass has 2 colors,red and green,there appear red and green colored bubbles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chucks_mibs Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 Winnie, I find transparent colored marbles are extremely hard to photograph with accurate details.....and from the pics given, I can see it has Red and Green and also that the marble contains a ton of bubbles (looks like a patch?).....My question is, when held against different angles of lighting, does the marbles' overall appearance and the shape of the seams perhaps have characteristics of an Akro patch? EDIT: At the top half of the first picture (directly on and around the light reflections)....are those seams?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winnie Posted February 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 No visible seams that i can see. To me it looks just like a funky 2 colored cleary,or am i wrong..... Here are some pic- with different exposure,than the first pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck G Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 Winnie, dont under estimate "Clearies". I have found over the years you have to inspect them very closely. For example i have found just a plain clear antique handmade shooter size that contains an air trap in it that looks like a tear drop, pretty neat. I found another transparent clear machine made that when hitting it with a blacklight i found florescent feathering in it that looks just like the feathering on peltier slags but internally, so check them all, you never know what may show up.

chucks_mibs Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 The second set of photos look like its a transparent patch....Red transparent bubbly based glass with the trans green being the patch... Maker?...HMMM Akro or Master.......just my two cents..... PS-If its an Akro, its a pretty rare one...go check your Akro Patches, and see how many Transparent on Transparent's there are .......
