akroorka Posted April 14, 2023 Report Share Posted April 14, 2023 I will admit that I had to start a new folder on the PC. I just am not into contemporary marbles that much. There is always an exception to the rule though. I never met Nadine MacDonald in person—just online back during “Nan’s Board”. (I hope that the spelling is right, both ways) This will be my favorite contemporary forever—she was the pinnacle of”just being a nice person” that collected marbles. She shared all of her knowledge freely and never with any contempt for those who challenged her. She was a “Marble Jedi” for sure. (She did know her Pelts very well) She also made some hand painted and glazed marbles that should be cherished by all. This one is one inch and I feel blessed just to have it. I will always keep this one, close to my heart and always on display--always. I have a few marbles from Ron—same thing---for sure!!! Marble—On Nadine!! Marble—On Ron!!! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted April 14, 2023 Report Share Posted April 14, 2023 This one has to be a top contender -- a marble that Carole Shockley had Kevin Nail make for me. Sweet as honey. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Douglas Ferguson, it's an old one, called an alien egg. He still makes similar marbles but not sure if he makes any exactly like that one ??
