Ric Posted June 13, 2023 Report Share Posted June 13, 2023 It's kind of hard to tell from these images but I think it might be a Peltier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akroorka Posted June 13, 2023 Report Share Posted June 13, 2023 This is a tuf one. I do not know if I would call it a slag or a swirl---hmmm--CAC?? The blow out shows some pretty thick glass?? More opinions are needed and welcomed. Marble--On!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The base glass in a slag will always be transparent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noodleloaf Posted June 14, 2023 Report Share Posted June 14, 2023 Similar but a few notable small differences. Â The similar one you pictured is a slag - note the thick bright white throughout the transparent red base (plus different seams and movements/patterns in the glass) -> red slag. Â Yours has a clear base with soft white and red ribbons going around the marble (and some interesting strands through the center). Â I would definitely have with my Pelt rainbos.

Ric Posted June 14, 2023 Report Share Posted June 14, 2023 The biggest difference is that your marble has transparent base glass and the one on EBay has red base glass. The reason that marble looks like it has more than just white striping glass is because in some places the white dips blow the red base glass which makes it look colored. Your marble has both white and red/orange striping glass on transparent base glass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
