Yeah - thats why I asked for another view of it.  It looked wrong.

Well, both are very nice. So surprising the Oxblood did not burn up or just turn solid with air pop and bubbles while reheating and shaping. As you can see in the photo of Lemon Lime Oxblood, it and the brick managed to retain a real effect. I have another melt job and is pure junk from Remelt.

These two are fantastic marbles. If it was not such a scam, a scam by these three rip-off cons. Had they told the truth, I'd be very pleased. Instead, stuck with bad vibes and plenty of cash ripped off in their scheme. I mean, I spoke with Debbe and took her word, didn't expect that. She is a better lair than Cliffy.

This one too, Bad people and bad Vibes.

I dumped them but only regret I did not smash em with a hammer. So, beware because they may resurface someday.

I wonder if these bottom two were what Akro wanted the blue oxbloods to be???

I have seen one--I might still have it--too many marbles?? Never!

Nice group!

Marble--On!!

Could be, found separately years and miles apart.

I guess today is minimalist "Akro Friday" for me. I'm calling this one an Eggyolk oxblood patch, w/ minimal ox and a borderline type eggyolk  :dunno: Nonetheless it is an Akro patch.

Happy Akro Friday!
This one is just over an inch, probably dug or “experimental”. Off white (very cool to me at least) and a more regular Akro Agate green are included here.
It is in very fine shape though and pretty minty for one out of the ground imho.
These larger Corkscrews always get me going, there are not too many to find so I jump on them when I get a chance.
Marble—On!!

That's a cool one, Art. Is that base glass a little pinkish or is it just me?
