Rooneydog Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 Hi, am I correct in classifying these as Indians ? they are all less than 1/2 inch, thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 Gosh I wish I felt more comfortable with the names of German handmades. I'm inclined to think you have at least one Indian in the mix but I don't for sure, especially about the ones with the faintest color bands. Looking forward to hearing the answers myself.

ann Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 They look like Indians from what I can tell. In hand, is it obvious that the color bands are on (not under) the surface? Are they dead black or if backlit brightly some deep transparent color? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooneydog Posted June 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2015 Thanks for the responses - they are dead black and the colour bands appear to be on the surface, I do have some peewees that are very dark blue with the bands under the surface (transluscents ?) and these are quite different.

Al Oregon Posted June 2, 2015 Report Share Posted June 2, 2015 A little off topic but I wonder if the government will come after the marble collecting hobby for calling these marbles "Indians"? Not politically correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted June 2, 2015 Report Share Posted June 2, 2015 But aren't they called Indians because they were thought to come from India? If that's so, then that should be okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
