Fire1981 Posted December 13, 2021 Report Share Posted December 13, 2021 Not a Tomato! I think it’s something better because of the white ribbons and ruby red base glass. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad G. Posted December 13, 2021 Report Share Posted December 13, 2021 Agree, I don't see Pelt tomato, Peltier Tomato is a Rainbo, I believe it was named by Scott Legrand AKA (ednargel) the white is on the outside of a red translucent base, though in hand the base presents opaque.

Chuck G Posted December 13, 2021 Report Share Posted December 13, 2021 I would like to add a little to this conservation. In ALL my years looking and searching for Peltier marbles, (you) will find so so many variants of base colors when one is talking about a specific color, like red orange and so on. The red or even the orange will vary drastically from one end of the spectrum to the other in so many shades. Brown is another color that ranges a lot in this color range. (IF) the (odd or out of range) color is not normal, i will agree, possibly being (rarer) it does warrant a possible name like Scott named the Peltier "Tomato". Green based Peltiers is another one that will range in many shades. The color of the "Tomato" is an (off) color so if you have an example, compare it to the other shades in that family type. I will have to (add) this one to my list of names. Just a few opinions on my part. Chuck G--- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"again a shared name" i.e. ( Vitro Tomato) Just going by what I've read and pictures for I.D. on some of these not so common mibs. I agree there are variants to almost every marble, that and everything in between. Exactly where to draw the line in some cases ?? When there have been "Billions" of marbles produced over time I would gander to say just about every color combo and variation the imagination can come up with has been made and then some. Opinions are very important and stimulate conversation as we move forward and new information is revealed so the hobby progresses. Something I enjoy very much, always new information, new things to learn, differing perspectives & discussion are a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akroorka Posted December 13, 2021 Report Share Posted December 13, 2021 I have one that looks close in color to the one that you posted Mojo. I call this one a “Dark Red Zebra” at 11/16”. No need to get the fruits😁 or vegetables😁 involved here. (see how I covered my tracks) Marble—On!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
