•~Emily~• Posted October 10, 2022 Report Share Posted October 10, 2022 I’ve been gaga over this one for a while. I just love the color combo. Maybe because it’s unique to me Always on the look out for similar. What is she? And am I a weirdo for assigning genders to certain marbles, lol. Thanks again for all the help. It’s definitely fueling my marble fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted October 10, 2022 Report Share Posted October 10, 2022 All I can come up with is a dug Akro corkscrew with a crazy color combo and cruddy base glass. Cruddy in a desirable way 🔥 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive drooled over those marble digs for years. I couldn’t even imagine?! Have they done Peltier ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted October 10, 2022 Report Share Posted October 10, 2022 It’s a crude marble that probably got tossed because it didn’t pass or meet quality control standards. This was done by hand. Those reject pits have been dug up and some of those marbles have been put back into recirculation. That’s my take on this one. We’ll see if someone else has something to add. 🔥 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well Emily "that has lost the marbles"😁. This is a tuff one and I think that Fire has it about as close as you will find it. I have seen enough "Dug Akros " to know that you will not know what to expect--color wise. I do not doubt that this one was a disgarded (by the factory) marble--By which factory may be an argument--but not a really good one. Marble--On!!
