Steph Posted March 13 Report Share Posted March 13 Are all Japanese marbles now called Yasuda? I'm seeing Yasuda in ID's everywhere but surely that wasn't the only Japanese marble manufacturer? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steph Posted March 13 Author Report Share Posted March 13 1 hour ago, Tommy said: Whales type is Japanese also ? It was a Wales type that I saw called Yasuda today. Wales of course was the name on the header, not necessarily the manufacturer. So maybe the manufacturer was Yasuda. But marbles were made in Japan for many decades. And it's great to know one manufacturer ... but hard to believe that's the only one. I know someone has done a bunch of research on it and I'm behind. So is the verdict "actually truly all Yasuda"? Or are all the usual Japanese marbles at least actually truly Yasuda? Or is Yasuda a cool name which is now being used more than it should be? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. As I suspected -- many Japanese marble makers. So Yasuda was one of the largest. But I'm not yet satisfied with everything being called Yasuda. I will keep reading. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
