Then I get to go thru my jars again (always lookin' for an excuse). Thanks Bruce Hi Bruce, Rainbos usually have four or six ribbons running seam to seam. Vitros can sometimes look a bit like them but are not usually as symmetrical. Having said that, some of the ribbons on Rainbos can get pretty wild - to the point where its sort of hard to tell there really are four or six. Beyond that, colors are usually a very good clue, as are the shape of the seams - there is usually at least one sort of weak "S"-shaped seam on Rainbos - not so common on Vitros. Here are some Peltier Rainbos: And some Vitros, for comparison: I hope this helps. But beyond that, like Rooster said, study and sort, study and sort . . . it'll take some effort, but you'll get there eventually! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wvrons Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 Nice bunch of Vitro peas. Do not see many of those Chic Peas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 Those purples are cool. I'll have to look and see if I have anything like those - it seems unlikely, since I don't think I would forget them. And that is a great display! I have always liked those orange/yellow/mossy ones.
