Oxblood.. corkscrew?

Well that is a pretty cool marble. 
Oxblood usually does not dive in and out like that, it is more of a surface dweller.
I will guess that it is a Heaton but I really suck at WVS marble ID.
More opinions are needed.
Very Nice!
Marble—On!!

Almost sure it's Akro & almost positive on the oxblood, I have several Akro where the oxblood dives into the base glass, not common as Art said but something I like & look for, the op looks like the glass was folded  @ some point during production (especially in the first pic) causing the oxblood to "dive" into the base glass IMO

Chad may be onto somthing here.

Milky Oxbloods made by Akro Agate are some of the messiest Oxbloods made imho.

They can also be a hard ID because of the variations found.

Just something to consider IMHO.

Well, I guess you could hit it w/ a light & see if it's uv Sherry, I see some clear transparent so I have my doubts, not common to see transparent clear in ade base glass but I guess there's always a first  ? I seen the green tint in the first & second pic also but that little bit of clear has me leaning away from ade glass.

Size can be important with these. For sure not limeade.   With that weak white and clear with slight green, I am leaning hard to Jabo. If 11/16 to 3/4 no doubts it is Jabo. If near 5/8 could still be Jabo.  It is a swirl not a cork.  A cork is a color stripe that goes from top pole to bottom pole in a corkscrew pattern and never crosses itself.
