VTAndrea Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 I know there's been discussion of this kind previously, but can't remember exactly what hobbyists call it. Window? Windshield? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 "Windshield" has been used for a Pelt type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck G Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 Andrea, YES, a pelt "Windsheild" as they call it. You will find most of this type in the bigger size marbles. It has a base glass of different transparent colors including some clear base ones, now to classify it as this type or in the family, it has to have these colors to the wide ribbons (most of the time) on the surface and (has to) cover 70% of the marble and one open spot that you can see down inside that usually is the other 30% open. Hope this explains the marble better. Chuck G-- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ann Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 . . . it has to have these colors to the wide ribbons (most of the time) on the surface . . . Hi Chuck -- which colors are you talking about for the ribbons? Do they only come in certain colors or certain color combinations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck G Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Hi Ann, yes most of them come in this color combo and blending. I have seen akro as well as master with these open (viewing into) windows also, (however) they have only ONE other color to the other part of the marble, NOT the duel color of peltier. This means that there could be other color combos of peltier "Windsheilds" also. Chuck G-- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTAndrea Posted December 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Thanks for the explanation, Chuck. I have mine up for bid on ebay so I'm glad to know I gave it the correct nickname. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
