I'llhavethat1 Posted May 28, 2022 Report Share Posted May 28, 2022 Like so. People have their opinions on polishing...This marble was a solid core Leroy helped me out with (some people might call it something else) but the point is it looks way better now than it did before. Leroy had quite the knack. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crashbelt Posted June 2, 2022 Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 Here's an oddity from my collection. The marbles are pretty routine swirls in nice condition. But the board is made of real marble, with black marble feet. It weighs over 2kg and I've never seen another! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice They appear to be cemented on in some way - not sure what that indicates regarding age? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crashbelt Posted June 8, 2022 Report Share Posted June 8, 2022 Here's a nice bright set of swirls - strong colours in clear glass, ground pontils on a plain mahogany board. So later period probably. So nothing unusual about this set - I just really like it!!! 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

schmoozer Posted June 9, 2022 Report Share Posted June 9, 2022 Has anyone polished a Leighton? about 1-1/4” I think. On vacation, so no Calipers. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schmoozer Posted June 9, 2022 Report Share Posted June 9, 2022 This donut bullseye is 1-3/4”. (Found a measuring tape) I do not collect chinas, but this one stood out due to its size. Looked online and found nothing similar. It has crazing, so thinking it is not a contemporary. black with the outer bands being dark blue. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not positive he still does marbles but he's the only one I'm aware of. Guess you'll have to Email him ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
