MonarchMom Posted December 12, 2023 Report Share Posted December 12, 2023 Are these all banana marbles? The darker yellow ones are much cooler! They even have cadmium in the yellow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banana is a Peltier marbles term. They did come in a few sizes. The Pelt “Bananas” are known for the crystal clear base glass—some of the best clear glass that you will find in any marble. I do not doubt that your first images show Pelt Bananas. The ones in your hand are foreign, probably from an Asian maker. I would not call them bananas, rather Asian cat eyes. These foreign cats were made with recycled glass, this is why the base is greenish like an old Ball canning jar. Nice images by the way! Marble—On!!
