cheese Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 What size is it? I think it's a Vacor sunset. First pic is a group of Steph's. They can vary a LOT. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

William Posted June 27, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 Sorry about the non-inclusion of the size....0.55. Vacor Sunset...interesting opinion 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Posted June 27, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 I checked out some more images and descriptions of the Vacor Sunsets and this marble is almost spot on except for one thing...the description on Liste has all Sunsets being brushed with yellow and/or orange on the surface. My marble doesn't have anything brushed on the surface. Everything you see with this marble is at but beneath the surface. The surface itself is very smooth, not feeling anything but glass.

But man, it does look just like those Sunsets. Is what I'm saying about the marble make sense with a Sunset? Thanks for the info, Chuck, and any more additional 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steph Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 Sunset does seem to be a good possibility. It might be one of those first generation versus second generation situations. That is, whether the color is below the surface in a way that could pass for Master or whether it's on the surface in a way that looks blatantly foreign. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Posted June 27, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 Thanks for all the comments, thoughts and opinions everyone...I'm happy either way because it's a nice looking marble. I'll tell you, it sure is a fine line when it comes to identifying 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akroorka Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 These Vacor "Sunsets" can be misleading. I will renew my search for some smaller ones. Thanks again to cheese for keeping me on my toes. Marble--On!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheese Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 Yeah the sunsets don't come around that often, at least for me. I don't know if they didn't make as many or what. I keep the ones I find, I think they are one of Vacor's better marbles. I've seen them with ribbons in the glass as well as on top. Often mistaken for Master, probably more often than not. I had a guy on the Mainly Master Made Marbles group on facebook trying to sell several like these as Masters. They had the ribbons under the surface some too. He had a whole big batch of them, all brand new looking and that odd peachy coral foreign looking glass in them. The glass on them is off for Master, you can tell something isn't right if you put one in a large group of masters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely a special place for it 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
