That is a very busy Akro and only three and a half hours early  😆

Double Ingot Sparkler, is there more going on, is it fractured, so much to look at. Some of that Green looks a little transparent, and is there possibly AV in that Green too? 
Very cool Double Ingot.

Weird is a good thing. Pinched up and can’t laugh at self is a buzz kill. When or if I get called a dork my response is “I got tired of being cool.” Being a dork and a weirdo is easier🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Been a long time since I posted this Silver. Just over 3/4ths and dead wet mint, a favorite of mine. The first two are under a 5000 k Daylight bulb, all the same marble just different views.

This one is going to sell in the next year or so.

I have had it, did a little work on it and it is time to pass it on to the next collector.

Just a very rare thing to find and afford.

Bottom Feeders rule!

Marble--On!!

So I might have gone a little crazy at the Old South Marble Show in Valdosta last week 🤪, but how can you not when you're surrounded by marbles?
I have a couple Fridays worth of new-to-me Akros to share here LOL.

If you can get to a show, go. Not just for marble purchases, but for the knowledge, for the comradery, and for the amazing people who have our same appreciation for these tiny glass orbs. It really is cathartic. 

1. Baby Blue Prize Name with a horsehair 11/16"
2. Pistachio Green on a transparent Orange base 19/32"
3. a piece of Akro cullet in the shape of a heart ❤️
4. Orange, Red, and Pink 5/8"
5. an Orange Ringer 5/8"
