treetiger Posted January 4, 2024 Report Share Posted January 4, 2024 I found these recently and thought 'Marble king'...then I thought 'Peltier'...and then I thought of African wild life...then I gave up. Could these be Pandas or Zebras, or white tigers, or something else?? They are all 5/8ths ". Thanks for your input. Best wishes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There seems to be a light (very sparse) application of Aventurine; but it is hard to tell due to 'pocket wear'. They have some age and some tiny chips and moons on all of them. Still, if I have a 'herd' then I m very stoked! MK or Pelt Zebras? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akroorka Posted January 4, 2024 Report Share Posted January 4, 2024 UV always makes Pelts more desirable but a herd is a great thing. They are all called Zebras. Some are called Zebras with AV. Marble--On!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire1981 Posted January 4, 2024 Report Share Posted January 4, 2024 I didn’t mean a UV light. Here’s an example of Blue Aventurine (AV) that sparkles. Check you ribbons under a strong light and see if they have the AV sparkle like glitter🔥 RAR 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the 'Zebras' had seen some pocket wear and I kept getting reflections from the tiny craters and eensy flea bites, but they didn't show up metallic(ish) blue. So I have AV on them but it is not strong- that's okay by me. Thanks to you and everyone else for the advice and knowledge! Now I have a proper 'herd' (4 Zebras and 1 red Zebra formerly ID-ed). One of these days we should all show and tell our animal marbles!...see what kind of Zoo all of us are keeping! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
