sclsu Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 I don't know about this one. I was at a glass store and bought some jars of marbles. He could have made this one himself, but I thought I would get some input. Measures about 5/8" and looks to have either some gunk on it like it may have been glued to something. I know the pictures are terrible, but the silver wasn't showing up well in the pics. The one pic is with the light off only, no blacklight.

Steph Posted June 6, 2015 Report Share Posted June 6, 2015 Glow in the dark? Without blacklight? Weeeeeeeerd! Okaaaaaay. Well, except for the glow in the dark part, it looks like a "fried marble". That was a fad in the 60's. People made jewelry with and other crafts with them. Since it's glow in the dark, I have to ask if it is actually glass.

Steph Posted June 6, 2015 Report Share Posted June 6, 2015 You sure it's glass? The glow in the dark part is still a puzzle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted June 6, 2015 Report Share Posted June 6, 2015 Google some fried marbles and see how the pix compare. Here's an Etsy listing: https://www.etsy.com/listing/90725695/fried-marbles-rose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steph Posted June 6, 2015 Report Share Posted June 6, 2015 Still scratching my head over the glow in the dark. Maybe that's from the glue .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
