Thoughts on what these are?

They are Transparent Glass with mostly opaque Swirls of all sorts of colors (I am horrible at taking photos so excuse that lack of luster and ability to get super close in detail) 

I don't have my calipers atm so sizing is difficult (when I find them I'll edit) 

They are insanely beautiful in person these photos really don't do them justice... 

 

thanks for all your help Marble Comrades ☺️🙃IMG_20230816_134014.thumb.jpg.45adf03cc3c90fb2abf68555cdfa0adf.jpgIMG_20230816_134011.thumb.jpg.459b03ecee6f85e3554586c9bc8b302b.jpgIMG_20230816_134008.thumb.jpg.0e893e3db66437876174d905df2bb4d2.jpgIMG_20230816_134004.thumb.jpg.9ac28c2d1a0f925e7723c09f02716d53.jpg

Champion IMO

Do you think they resemble this? I was going to message you lol but we can't send photos without a link via messaging .. 

I was reading a prior conversation you had about your "Red Cloud" & the "Hot To make" runs... Which made me look closer at these :)

I think that Champion is a good call here.

If you can afford to buy marbles a calipers is very cheap---just mho.

Marble--On!!

I have some I just can't place them ATM (with kiddos things always go missing lol)

9.5,10.5 & 11 mm I've found three different sizes

Normal tolerances for marble production are not that tight. The 1.5 mm difference between the largest and smallest you describe amounts to about 6/100". Vintage American marbles had tolerances of about 1/16", e.g., a No. 0 marble (nominally 5/8") was anywhere from a hair over 9/16" to 5/8", while a No. 1 marble would be anywhere from a hair over 5/8" to 11/16", etc.

And FWIW, I think the peewees you're showing may be JABOs.
