Steph Posted August 2, 2013 Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 Is the 2nd one a Champion Furnace swirl? First one looks very strange. It looks modern and/or contemp to me. (I think of "contemporary" as handmade, and I'm wondering if this one might be a Vacor.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clydetul62 Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 Second is definetly a furnace. First one I am not sure but lean to what Steph said. At least the seller is trying and changing her descriptions. I give her kudos. The pics though are bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 She does have some interesting marbles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 I think that first one is the same as this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Akro-Agate-Indian-Blanket-Swirl-Marble-Oxblood-Mint-/171091849053 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They seem to have different bases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 The same, as in, a Vacor misidentified. I should have been more specific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see where Vacor COULD be a choice there,but there is something else I cannot put my finger on it. There are some nice marbles there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 The pics are not good on the first one. The only non-Vacor possibility I can think of is a CAC Red Devil. If so, someone just got one heck of a deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, someone just got one heck of a deal. I was thinking Red Devil as well Part of that was by looking at the sellers past sales and the marbles offered. I was on the fence and let it go by. It was cheap enough I should have let math take over instead of my heart and purchased it. Be out 15.00 or score a 200.00 marble for 15.00 Ah well,sometimes over-thinking closes doors that are wide open after the fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lstmmrbls Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 Wrong glass and wrong construction for a Red Devil IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnome Punter Posted August 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 Wrong glass and wrong construction for a Red Devil IMO. That's just it...you cannot tell enough to know either way IMO Factoring in all of the CACs they listed over the last 2 weeks makes me learn to the left end of the spectrum rather than towards the..border Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lstmmrbls Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 I based my opinion on the original description (type) of CAC called a Red Devil which was a red translucent base with yellow patch like swirling on the surface. Many other red and yellow CACs have been called red devils as of late. This one just does not look CAC to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
