I'llhavethat1 Posted March 19, 2023 Report Share Posted March 19, 2023 I needed an extra couple inches to clear some rough-ins (work in progress, lol, don't mind the mess). So they're not packed up in a box anymore, plus they function way better than I expected! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted March 19, 2023 Report Share Posted March 19, 2023 Heck yeah, they look great - way better than being packed out of sight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they're not packed up in a box anymore, plus they function way better than I expected! Great post Illhavethat1! I would love to see some more of these used in specific ways. Show us what you have and be inspired by what you see. Speaking of claw feet! I could not pass on this one. The Ebay seller was smart enough to hook me into it calling it a marble holder he/she got me. I have no idea what the original purpose was. It has a kind of bisque ware feel to it. It is finished with my biggest corkscrew @ 1-3/8”—What else . Marble—On!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire1981 Posted March 24, 2023 Report Share Posted March 24, 2023 Art ! I think yours is a candle holder. The hole in the bottom allows air to buffer the clay from getting hot on the surface it’s on. I think the 3 corners are faces of women🔥 RAR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted March 24, 2023 Report Share Posted March 24, 2023 I’m still trying to figure out how to display these. Top shelf or where ? These are beat up but are 2 and 1/4 . I think the heavier the piece determined the size of the claw and marble. What are the sizes of marbles you guys have in your claws🔥 RAR 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvrons Posted March 24, 2023 Report Share Posted March 24, 2023 About the same size, over 2 inches. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PittsburghMarbles Posted March 24, 2023 Report Share Posted March 24, 2023 Those big clear ones look like they were made with the same process as the clear marbles in antique Codd bottles. If you've ever noticed, the codd bottle marbles are also made in a similar fashion as to the more modern Czech bullet mold marbles, except the Codd bottle ones and these appear to have pontil marks obviously unlike the bullet mold marbles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
