TNG Posted January 10, 2023 Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 It's really hard to tell if there the banded ones, or if they have the one stripe that spins around like the book examples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted January 10, 2023 Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 I agree - a helix would be a single continuous line spiraling around the marble - it should have two obvious ends. Also, the book is referring to glazed China (ceramic/porcelain) marbles. The ones you're showing may also be Chinas but they are unglazed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNG Posted January 10, 2023 Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 There are a couple that look like they might fit the helix idea, but it could also be wear/age that makes some of the bands look incomplete. Specifically the second image, bottom right corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
