Marbleized Posted August 18, 2021 Report Share Posted August 18, 2021 Just found out that one of my now favorite marbles is a foreign marble. Just wondering if anyone else has a few in their collection to share. Thanks! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marbleized Posted August 18, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2021 Always great photography Chad! (Even without your glasses!) You even have foreign marbles that I've never seen live! Especially love the lime green looking wire pull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted August 18, 2021 Report Share Posted August 18, 2021 These are my most treasured because I got them in trade from a dearly departed Dutch marble friend, Winnie. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted August 19, 2021 Report Share Posted August 19, 2021 Water-driven stone polishing mills are machines, right?😁 a couple of close-ups. And here it is with some non-machine-made stoneware. I'm betting the stone is older. lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akroorka Posted August 19, 2021 Report Share Posted August 19, 2021 Time for some Vacors--I have loved these Wavebreakers, since I first laid eyes on them. Marble--On!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marbleized Posted August 19, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2021 Ah, I've been seeing so many vacors on auctions that I was forgetting that they are foreign! LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akroorka Posted August 19, 2021 Report Share Posted August 19, 2021 Foreign they are. The biggest one of all--lets see some more. Many will be future high enders. They competed with the Japenese and survived and now they are competeing with the Chinese. Respect to them no doubt. The more we learn the better. Marble--On!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marbleized Posted August 19, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2021 Just dug these out of a jar that I purchased. I think it is a full set of Vacors. Maybe sharks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marbleized Posted August 19, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2021 One of those optic Vacors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted August 20, 2021 Report Share Posted August 20, 2021 I don't generally hold on to Vacors, although I have saved a few that spoke to me. These might be a little older but I really don't know much about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
