Favorite Contemporary


Recommended Posts

I have a three way tie, two were acquiredĀ and one was a gift, can't make up my mind, the tiger I gifted to a good marble Brother so no longer mine but still a favorite.

I will help to break the tie--that second one is my fave.

Who made it?

Marble--On!!

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 ā€œNan’s Boardā€. (I hope that the spelling is right, both ways)
This will be my favorite contemporary forever—she was the pinnacle ofā€just being a nice personā€ that collected marbles. She shared all of her knowledge freely and never with any contempt for those who challenged her. She was a ā€œMarble Jediā€ for sure. (She did know her Pelts very well)
She also made some hand painted and glazed marbles that should be cherished by all.Ā 
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!!!

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 ??
