Marble I thought was black?  very very hard to get a picture! at 1st I thought Vitro then MK or Peltier? it does not react to UV and base looks green in pictures but is clear or light blue? it has a small fracture inside Oh! and lets not forget the Oxblood! Thank you!

Hello Gladys,

Not an Akro--MK.

A nice marble, once you put some light on it. MK marbles show up with some Ox from time to time.

When ever I see the little "hooks" on the top or bottom of a marble(sometimes both) like I have shown in the following image I start thinking MK.

Mentally, I have always thought that the whole "patch" with the included hooks/cutoffs at the ends looked like Water Buffalo horns that were cut off or shortened:dunno:.

Marble--On!!

Yes Gladys, I looked at all of the images.
This is what I see; A veneered marble with veneering that does not quite touch side to side. Seams/cutoffs that at least look like I could feel them with my fingernail. Some separation in the veneering. Opposing colors top and bottom and oxblood looking glass reminiscent of that seen in Marble King marbles. There may be some pollutants in the whitish broken line.
And a water buffalo with cutoff horns:white-flag-25:
The base glass does not matter much to me in this instance.
In my world this would be sorted as a MK.
I just call them like I see them. Still a great marble. Keep em coming!
Marble—On!!!

I have a hand full of these Vitros. Washed out white,green and lavender ribbons. Horsehair in the matrix and in the ribbons. They look opaque until you backlight them and then they shine. 

Oh my goodness please post then! Thank you!
