Akro Agate

I was looking at base glass comparisons in Akro.

The Red Spirals have two distinct base glasses. The two on the left have a brushed on, blurry edged red snake along the surface and a bluish tint in the base. The two on the right have a very defined edge on the red spiral with a clearer, almost a very light opalescent base glass. 

The blue Spirals (Onyx and Augers) have five different base glass colors (that I own) I'm sure there must be more, but I found the variations pretty cool, darkest at the top to a very pale blue base at the bottom. The middle row is almost a periwinkle color.

Fun, for me ,  to see the variances within Maker.

New in the mailbox yesterday:

A yellow Spiral in a dark Amber bubbly base and

a brilliant orange on an almost translucent blue base.

I thought the Green was an Ace, but the base isn't opalescent

The Black has an opalescent base

Wow, stunning Akro eye candy. If Akro was the only marble company, I'd still collect marbles and love it...except the prices would be 10x higher if that were the case.
