akroorka Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 It is a Master "Tiger Eye". All opinions are always welcomed. Marble--On!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheese Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 It really could be. Strange flat seam if it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da Roberto Posted September 2, 2022 Report Share Posted September 2, 2022 Yes, strange marble. The first two photos had "mastered" me, while the last two have vitro traits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvrons Posted September 2, 2022 Report Share Posted September 2, 2022 It looks Master Tiger Eye but that very straight cut line is odd for Master. Plus the colors of the Master Tiger Eyes usually go deeper into the marble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted September 2, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2022 I would have to see pics of a Master Tiger Eye with what I call a V shaped cutter pull to say it’s a Tiger Eye. 🔥 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted September 2, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2022 I have always associated the “V” trait with Pelts and Vitros🔥 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted September 2, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2022 I think this one is similar to the first one I posted. I’m thinking the seams and color combo kinda put these side by side in some capacity 🔥 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicagocyclist Posted September 2, 2022 Report Share Posted September 2, 2022 Looks like like a interesting Vitro patch to to me or some variation on a Half Helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheese Posted September 2, 2022 Report Share Posted September 2, 2022 A weird messed up helmet variation is what I had in mind too. They did this color combo with helmets. If you had a video where a tiger eye starts to morph into a black faced helmet, this marble would be what appears at the halfway point lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These aren’t. 🔥 The only marble I've ever seen with black like yours and tiger orangish and white, is a Master Tiger eye. Could swear I have one but seems to be hiding. I think the colors answer this and leave just one: black: MM vs Vitro. All the MM's I have with black are like Peltier's, that are actually a very dark green. In my Vitro box: IDK as a lot of ya'll have continued marching in this direction more than I, but all the blacks are dark purple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheese Posted September 4, 2022 Report Share Posted September 4, 2022 Here's the black faced helmet, true black. And here's the Master Tiger Eye: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvrons Posted September 4, 2022 Report Share Posted September 4, 2022 Ture black is rare with marbles. But it is there., Break them and find out. Vitro did have some but very little true black. The helmet is one of them. The black helmets are very hard to find 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheese Posted September 5, 2022 Report Share Posted September 5, 2022 ??? Okay then. I won't bother you any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvrons Posted September 5, 2022 Report Share Posted September 5, 2022 I guess that I also got lost some place above ? I thought the discussion went to Master or possible Vitro ? Then maybe a messed up Vitro Helmet. Then comments that if Vitro even had marbles with black. I guess that I am mixed up on cut line shapes. I have never associated a V shaped cutter pull, or V trait, with Peltier or Vitro cut lines. I have always seen Peltier, Vitro and Akro as very straight and or slightly curved or rounded cut lines. I thought Master cut lines were very similar to Imperial cut lines, which are very deep curve U or V and the opposite cut line is very pointed. Oh well, I guess to much information can be a problem. If needed it is not problem to cut the opinions, info, and pictures back to far less. The bottom line or end result is label your marble anything you want to. Sorry if your thread got hijacked.

William Posted September 5, 2022 Report Share Posted September 5, 2022 IMO, the whole discussion was and is based on the OP....simply a discussion of color, cuts and companies. All opinions SHOULD be welcome. This isn't the first thread where other companies and different types of marbles were used in an effort to educate while trying to come too an ID conclusion on the OP marble. It's all good. This was, and still is, simply just an effort by our peers too offer their assistance any way they can. Not a "hijacking" .....Like Art would say, "Opinions are welcomed and needed". After all, that is why marbles are posted here, right? 😊👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Start a Black Helmet thread. 🔥 It all seemed pretty on topic to me, since what we have here is a marble with traits of both the Master Tiger Eye and the Vitro Tri-Lite, so rolling out examples of each for discussion is what we hope people can do. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
