Fire1981 Posted November 4, 2021 Report Share Posted November 4, 2021 The seams look Arko with a Sparkler pattern but not a Sparkler because there aren’t enough colors in the filaments. FWIW 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akro75 Posted November 4, 2021 Report Share Posted November 4, 2021 I thought the same thing, I would consider it a sparkler if it had a few more colors. However, I remember seeing an original box of sparklers and some didn't quite look so colorful, maybe 3 colors tops. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted November 4, 2021 Report Share Posted November 4, 2021 Maybe a Spark 🤪 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvrons Posted November 7, 2021 Report Share Posted November 7, 2021 Akro but not enough colors for a Sparkler. Sparker needs at least four colors, five or six preferred. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akroorka Posted November 9, 2021 Report Share Posted November 9, 2021 I am not convinced that this is an Akro. The light pink just throws me off. I know that Sparklers could have some "seediness" or small bubbles included in the matrix but this seems pretty severe. Then again, there are many"Dug Akros" that show up in mint condition and these are pretty common (the dug marbles) in todays spectrum. I have not seen another like it and I doubt that few have. Judging by the images I would call it ---well I am not sure---foreign----to me at least. Great marble non-the-less! As always--in hand I, as most, could tell better. Great images!! Marble--On!!!

akroorka Posted November 11, 2021 Report Share Posted November 11, 2021 The new images make me think that it is a Master Made Marble---"Sunburst". Not Master Glass but Master Made. Marble--On!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
