Cool black one

[Melissa]

But what is it?

[William]

I almost said Master...Maybe a Vitro? A few more views could tell more. More opinions for sure 👍

[akroorka]

I agree with William, more shots needed.

Here and here.

Marble--On!!

First impressions give me a Master vibe

That's what kinda grabbed me too, brother! Then I started seeing Vitro veins. We'll see, but I think I would go Master first myself after looking again a couple times...

[Ric]

I think it's probably Master too.

Yikes--I asked for it didn't I--- I think that you have an Akro there.

Just my opinion and I do appreciate them all.

Which Akro are you thinking?  Maybe I can google and compare?

[Ric]

Thanks for the additional pics. A good view of the cutoffs usually helps. It appears the base glass is not entirely opaque and while it may well be a Master marble, the cutoffs are giving me a foreign vibe too. And unlike Art, it's not really striking me as Akro.

[William]

Better images and Art might be on to something...I sure was thinking Master after I distanced myself from that Vitro thought. I just might be hopping on that Akro 🚂

Foreign...that's an interesting observation also, Ric. I'm really starting to like this marble 😊

[Melissa]

Help at all?

[Ric]

The video helps to distinguish damage from shear marks and I'm leaning more toward Master now - showing the other cutoff also might have sealed the deal for me.

[akroorka]

I do not always trust cutoff marks but this is what I see.
The flow of the glass may fool you here.
I always appreciate the opinions of others.
I will stick with Akro.
Marble—On!!

All the pictures are to far away and glare on the cut lines for me to make a call.

I’ll try to get some better pics in the daylight this weekend.

I'll try!  I'm such a terrible marble photographer.

Pics in natural lighting

I am often guilty of the same thing, having the light reflection right where you need to see the seams.   That's why lighting from 10:00 and 2:00 really works the best.  Agree that's tricky to do.
