Akro? 🤔 or Pelt patch ?

Loaded with Aventurine. Glowing backlight ...🤔

Thanks for looking 👍

This is where I get in trouble. Finding a Pelt that glows like an Akro or any other Vaseline glass marble  is just something I’ve never found in my Pelts.

If you have an example please post it.

Looks like a regular flashlight to me, not a uv.  one ??   If so then it's translucent base glass not uv.  Glowing means when you remove regular light the glass remains "Glowing" .  U.v. reactive means the base glass only reacts when a uv light is "applied", when the uv light is pulled away the reaction stops & mib has no extended glow, uv is only a "direct reaction"  glowing is "indirect" your looks like translucent base glass "to me" due to the av.  & dimpling in the black patch and the general structure of the mib I'll say Peltier Peerless Patch (PPP) .

Glowing was wrong word lol...I didn't know they made Glowing mibs..

Thanks for your input Chad always appreciated 👍

Yes one "Glowing" I am reminded was the "Olaf's Snowball"  I really don't think it was the actual base glass in that case but the snowy looking particles floating all round in the base glass that "glowed" I have a few mibs that do "glow" but have no idea who made them ??

I googled "Glowing Marbles" and a multitude of them popped up. Here's one for sale from amazon, there were a bunch more, all Contemps !!

[Chad G.]

Ah !! They just listed this on Ebay. Almost the exact same thing as an "Olaf's Snowball" the particles glow not the base glass, I had one given to me years ago that was over 1.5 inches & "handmade" with a sloppy pontil, unlike these machine made ones.

Another listing, these are smaller, around 5/8ths I believe ??  There were 116 different active listings on Ebay & a myriad of different "Glowing" marbles.
