wvrons Posted June 6, 2022 Report Share Posted June 6, 2022 There is a little more simple method for sorting the Vitro Tiger Eye Types. There are a few exceptions. Like most things marbles. We have also found a few that do not fit into the type 1-2-3 or 4. So I guess they might be type 5 & 6. Chuck Brandstetter worked on getting these different types into groups for over a year. We spent a lot of time discussing Tiger Eyes. But I come up with a quick easy way for myself separating the four types. It all has to do with the color white. Type one = one white pole or side. Type two = no white. Type three = white band around the center or middle. Type four = opaque white base. The only Tiger Eye with white opaque base. Try this and it will be accurate the majority of the time. We started with this and then broke it down to even more detailed. Even charted the color combinations and percentages of which color combinations were found most often and what color combos were more rare. Most common to more rare. Type one Type three Type four Type two Type two and four were very close. But type two was seen the least. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
