akroorka Posted September 14, 2022 Report Share Posted September 14, 2022 Nice Rainbo! I would not stretch this into a named category though. All opinions are welcomed. Marble--On!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhomer2172 Posted September 15, 2022 Report Share Posted September 15, 2022 Neither of the previous so called maybe dragons were NLRs! And what’s the polnt of “ tweeners” ? Either it’s a dragon or a flame or it’s not. When you start to blur the lines pretty soon anything is acceptable! Jon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon I understand what you are saying, and I am here to learn, I have seen several that look similar called dragons at different places, but I know that marbles are often labeled wrong and I know that I have not fully learned or been able to understand the difference between NLR and regular ol' Rainbo's which is why I come ask you fine ladies and gentlemen in hopes that I might learn the differences for myself over time. I do thank you for your knowledge and Input. Might I ask what a "tweener" is? Thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhomer2172 Posted September 16, 2022 Report Share Posted September 16, 2022 Ha! I believe that a “tweener” is what some would call a marble that kinda had the look and maybe hinted at having some of the features of a more easily identifiable piece. Kinda like the ones pictured here having Dragon type colors and some ribbons. But falling way short of being a classic, easily identified marble. Others on here with marble making experience can probably address this, but I would think that in every batch there are many marbles that don’t come out like they should have but kinda similar. Those you posted are nice rainbos by the way!! Keep learning, I certainly am! jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was a era notation ; (Early) NLR - Tweener- (Later) Bo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
