Ric Posted April 4, 2022 Report Share Posted April 4, 2022 It's such an odd patch, it sort of looks Vitro, but I wonder about Peltier possibilities too. The base is pretty cool but would be odd for either type, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greeneyesgreenthumbs Posted April 5, 2022 Report Share Posted April 5, 2022 Vitro / Jabo not a wedding cake. Here’s a quote from the archives at Mibz and More detailing a wedding cake “The Vitro Wedding Cake is one marble that is rare. There are variations of a Wedding Cake but the true types are vhtf and the red ones are rare. Real Wedding Cakes have an off white base, with a colored patch on top and a bright white (icing like) border surrounding the colored patch. The rare ones will have a red patch. Now in my opinion, real Wedding Cakes have to have the off white base, not grey and are shooters meaning 3/4+. I believe they are one of the relatively few opaque based patches made while Vitro was in Vieena. A good way of testing to see if it's a Wedding Cake is to see if it glows. So check em out and good luck on your Wedding Cake hunt…” true wedding cakes are shooters 3/4” and up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvrons Posted April 5, 2022 Report Share Posted April 5, 2022 The majority of Vitro Wedding Cakes are 7/8 inch size. A few rare 5/8 and 3/4 inch have been found. They are opaque white base and have a added second bright white and another color. The additional color can be red, maroon, blue, teal, yellow or green. Never seen or heard of any purple on any Wedding Cake. The original here looks transparent pink base with white patch and blue ribbon. All Wedding Cakes are opaque and have two different colors or shades of white. The bright white looks like, bright snow white wedding cake icing. The original is just a Vitro patch. If the spots in the 4th picture are on the surface, it is damage, hits. It has lots of damage in the other pictures. Or if inside, It may have some bubbles or seedy glass. No collector value and it will never be a Wedding Cake no matter how much it or you want it to be. We all want most of our marbles to be something they are not.
