Ric Posted June 11, 2023 Report Share Posted June 11, 2023 There are lots of reflections on the surface of the marble, your phone, your fingers, furniture, wall decor, etc, which makes it hard to see what the marble really looks like. It also looks like it is different colors depending on which photo you look at. Since all we have to go on for ID are your photos, it's important that they accurately show the marble's color. If the photo doesn't look like the marble in hand it can be near impossible to provide an accurate ID. My impression of this one is that it's a Vacor Rooster with an interesting pattern. Although, it might be vintage, it's hard to tell from the pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gr8Natured Posted June 11, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2023 Thank you, I will get some better pics. I measured it. .61" I don't know how that converts into the other measurement people are always using like 5/8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steph Posted June 12, 2023 Report Share Posted June 12, 2023 I am leaning vintage myself. I considered Vacor because of the bubble pops, but the swirl pattern says older to me.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carowill Posted June 12, 2023 Report Share Posted June 12, 2023 MFC or more likely Akro IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted June 12, 2023 Report Share Posted June 12, 2023 I agree with vintage, and most likely Akro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
et cetera Posted June 12, 2023 Report Share Posted June 12, 2023 The photos are not optimum which is not really a criticism but does present an extra challenge. I'm seeing the base color as a particular dark wine red that I associate with some CAC slags. This color creates a bronzy effect where the white is just below the surface. IMHO along with the color blows in the white and pattern flow in general I'd have this with my CAC slags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runvs Posted June 12, 2023 Report Share Posted June 12, 2023 Why do you think that this slag is Rare? Other than the fact that it is red in color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runvs Posted June 12, 2023 Report Share Posted June 12, 2023 It looks like a Vintage MFC or possibly an Early Akro but most likely an MFC. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad G. Posted June 12, 2023 Report Share Posted June 12, 2023 Red is a common color base for slags, Akro IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
