rockgardenplants Posted June 8 Report Share Posted June 8 I've never seen green tracing oxblood before. Is this Akro, Alley, other? 5/8" mint. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted June 8 Report Share Posted June 8 I almost hate to say it but similar marbles were made in a JABO contract run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheese Posted June 8 Report Share Posted June 8 Did JABO make some like this in 5/8? I would have put this with my Alleys but the oxblood on white marbles can be pretty tough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was Ed Parson's Furnace Wash (2010) - there were a bunch with ox and green on white, and the coverage and patterns were highly variable. I think the base glass is the tell. This might be a "weak" one. 25 minutes ago, rockgardenplants said: lol... it's not like you're giving me bad news. If I had known about JABOS like this I would bought a box!

Fire1981 Posted June 8 Report Share Posted June 8 Killer Jabo for sure. Gotta love the Furnace Wash runs 🔥 RAR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockgardenplants Posted June 8 Author Report Share Posted June 8 It would make sense for it to be a JABO. The lot that I purchased had new and vintage. I can spot an oxblood JABO (amateur level) and my Dad (formerly gremlin*** on ebay) bought a fair number of them just for their amazing looks.

cheese Posted June 8 Report Share Posted June 8 I see the JABO pattern in the box set, much simpler than the pattern in the OP marble IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The patterns, colors and coverage from this run varies like crazy - Ed got really creative with them. I've seen variants without any green that look so Akro or Alley it's scary.

akroorka Posted June 8 Report Share Posted June 8 There are Akro Christmas Trees with this color green and a few Akro oxblood patches as well. I do not think that it is an Akro though. I will lean towards Alley here—nice marble regardless of the ID. These ox on white swirls can be hard for sure. Marble—On!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockgardenplants Posted June 9 Author Report Share Posted June 9 In the sixth photo down there's a touch of pink in the little loop. I'm liking that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted June 9 Report Share Posted June 9 This is one of my Jabo oxbloods. I don't know what other colors might have been in other marbles from this run. I chose this particular marble because it compared so well with Akro. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted June 9 Report Share Posted June 9 Actually now that I think of it, I got one or two others with this one. I need to find them I suspect I would find some traces of green. I suspect that's why I have this single shot ready at hand and not the group photo. I was trying to make the Akro-lookalike point. Having other colors showing would have muddied the illusion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
