Fuzzy Chubbs Posted April 23, 2022 Report Share Posted April 23, 2022 Clear-based marbles are tricky to photograph, and I haven't yet macgyvered a good way to take backlit photos; so I hope these photos aren't too muddled by refraction! Mib #1 especially pops in-hand! Marble #1 16mm Clear Base 2 White Ribbons Each contains a strand of yellow/orange I'm guessing this is a separate color from the red, but can't be positive 2 Red Ribbons Each contains a strand of white Marble #2 16mm Clear Base 2 Opaque White Ribbons 2 Translucent Red Ribbons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire1981 Posted April 23, 2022 Report Share Posted April 23, 2022 The bottom one is a Cross Through. There are other color combos one these. Yellow/White ribbons and Orange/White. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will note that while they do meet at both seams, they are separate ribbons with a gap in the core of the marble. So, is a "Cross Through" when two seemingly separate ribbons are made on opposite sides from one stream of glass? Or just when any two ribbons of the same color meet on both seams?

Fuzzy Chubbs Posted April 23, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2022 I'm gonna guess that it's two ribbons meeting, making it seem like they 'cross through' the marble. Because of the manufacturing process, it can't have a ribbon going through, since the marble is 'cut in half'. Maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck G Posted April 24, 2022 Report Share Posted April 24, 2022 The "Cross-Throughs" are (earlier) than the "Sunsets". Chuck G--- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
