Fire1981 Posted December 17, 2023 Report Share Posted December 17, 2023 I’m going to say Akro Patch or Foreign. So that means it’s probably a Master🔥 RAR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe2 Posted December 18, 2023 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2023 Is anyone seeing a possibility of a Hand-gathered? I too was entertaining the thought of a foreign possibility. Just haven't seen a Master ever in this color palette 😘 must be so Rare ahf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Leaning Master, but with the bright green I am still seeing foreign possibilities" I'm not convinced that the brilliant, unnatural green is a faithful reproduction of the actual color. I've never seen a green like that. I'll suggest that its either HDR, 'Vivid' chroma boost setting or some very strange lighting - some over-driven flash etc. The pic is over-exposed.

Fire1981 Posted December 18, 2023 Report Share Posted December 18, 2023 Is it a veneered marble and is there activity in the matrix 🔥 RAR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe2 Posted December 18, 2023 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2023 It's a translucent green marble with the white striations that run just beneath the surface over a lime green Base when I say translucent I mean almost clear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe2 Posted December 18, 2023 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2023 I was even considering it to be a Mexican marble but it was in a mix of older machine made marbles from the 30s and possibly twenties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I _think_ I'm seeing two v-shaped cutlines ... leading to the thoughts of it being Master. I'm curious about the Mexican possibilities though. I have been hearing that there were some gorgeous Master-like marbles coming out of Mexico in the 50's and 60's. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it is not hand-gathered, no CAC nor Akro, Master, but that brushed white is something and complements this green. Blending into the green and so bright. Master's are brushed but not like this which looks like whitewash. It looks like there's is paint on it. You may be on to something Steph, it is quite different, very unusual.

Yes, mottled wouldn't be wrong. I had not seen the newer photo and so, it seems the first has very bright white so, now, I am not sure what it really looks like. Either way, it is quite unusual and I do not see a pattern to ID it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for input, my only regret was taking it out side, it fell about 6 "and now has ²hit marks. Vary, vary, fragile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
