marbles34 Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 Seen this neat handmade on ebay, any thoughts to what it is? Seen anything like it before? http://www.ebay.com/itm/182016279276?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Thanks!

Steph Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 Of course I don't know. It's making me feel I need to start paying more attention to the base glass of handmades though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sclsu Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 It looks like a latticino core to me. From what I've read the white and yellow lattice is less common Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattshaw1953 Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 This ended way before you're post, not sure why you would ask after auction ended?, the marble had 1 yellow lattice, 1 white lattice, separate from one another, a nice marble, befor the lattice was twisted, forming yellow/white Latticino core?

marbles34 Posted February 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 Why you ask.....to show courtesy to anyone who bid or planned to bid on this auction. Also, why is it relevant if the auction ended or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ann Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 Paul Baumann (in his Collecting Antique Marbles) calls this type a ribbon latticinio. They're fairly uncommon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, why is it relevant if the auction ended or not? Good answer. It can be hard to wait, and some times there are pressing questions from someone who is interested in bidding on an auction and needs to learn fast before the auction is over. But as you suggest, the majority preference seems to avoid posting active auctions if possible, except when a seller is announcing their own auctions of course!

Mattshaw1953 Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 Marble 34, I'm not sure what you're aim is for this post?, you've posted a marble after the auction has ended?, but you're question seems to be asking an opinion before the auction ends?, or am I missing something?

If it was a marble of a type I'd never seen before, and was curious about? Not everything is related to buying and selling. Plain old curiosity can play a part too.

The OP was not crap. Please don't talk that way. It was a good post about an interesting marble. There was no assumption of the auction still running. Don't attack members like that. Please. Thank you. If you have problems with this, please PM me. Don't derail this thread. If the thread looks like it's being derailed, this discussion will be broken off into another thread or unapproved.

marbles34 Posted February 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 Matt - read the OP again......I mention nothing about the auction or any relevance to an auction.....isn't this a website to acquire knowledge about marbles??? This is the exact reason I stay off these boards.....complete troll! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone has an issue with a post, you can just ignore it and read something else. Lou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hdesousa Posted February 20, 2016 Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 Personally, I would prefer if listmembers waited until an auction ends before posting the listing. The less attention drawn to an interesting item the better (for me. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'llhavethat1 Posted February 20, 2016 Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 It's a ribbon Latt, two ribbons in different colors. Nice pattern. Not understanding the controversy other than the fact you don't see them around too often. Nice looking marble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
