crashbelt Posted July 12, 2023 Report Share Posted July 12, 2023 I accumulated a few swirls over the years to fill odd gaps in original solitaire boards. I have no gaps now so the swirls live in vintage apothecarys' measuring jugs. I like them because they're handmade glass just like the marbles. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is very beautiful. My measuring jugs are easy to find in the UK and inexpensive and I believe are English or French made. They're likely Victorian which fits well with the age of the marbles. Sorry everyone for the slight digression on Thuringen Thursday!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I paid around £10 or less in the UK so very hard pass. They are very easy to find over here. Good luck finding them ' it is cool to display German marbles in glassware of the same era! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
