bumblebee Posted June 17, 2021 Report Share Posted June 17, 2021 Gorgeous but for my mileage I'd rather spend $14k on random eBay lots so I have something to pick through every day. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad G. Posted June 17, 2021 Report Share Posted June 17, 2021 This rarest color for a banded lutzΒ "pink" wasΒ $25,429.oo in a 2014 or 32015 Morphy auction, condition was mint sizeΒ 1.27" AnΒ Onionskin, right at 2" Β an Ebay auction, mint 9.7 - 8 with millefiori in it (one of a kind) $10,600.oo These things must have set on a mantle or in a box somewhere for wellΒ over a hundred years with no damage on top of being virtuallyΒ impossible to find another like them, just like the first onionskin.Β I believe the highestΒ $$ ever paid for a handmade was 28,000.oo last time it sold aroundΒ 2014. (last pic) not for rarity but the perfect 3" size. The law of physics says a sphere that big with the viscosity of the glassΒ is almost impossible to get or maintain the roundness of the sphere, so a true one in a million, sorry I don't have the auction pic but I an sure this is the marble. This is the 3 incher, sorry I don't have more pix but over time they were lost in the shuffle. Grateful I was able to save this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another Morphy auction, this pic is a little old. Bill M. (mibcapper) might have a few pics of some layin around ??Β it seems we were just talking about them a few months ago ??
