Cat's eyes to identify

Hello, cleaning in the attic I found these marbles that should be cat's eyes, but reading online I discovered that there are many types and so I became passionate about the world of marbles now I would like to start collecting them.
So let's start from the first photo could they be Japanese / Asian marbles? If so, are they of modern production or not?

what type are the ones circled in red?

Those in the second photo that are more recent and I think they are Chinese can you confirm this?

Sorry for my poor English, but I'm Italian.

Your first image shows what I would consider as Asian made due to the “Coke bottle” colored transparent glass involved. Asian marbles often display this because of the recycled glass that was often used.
The red circled ones are probably Asian but may be from Mexico.
The third group appears to be from the good old European Market to me.
Lets call in @Mojo for an opinion here.
Welcome and marble—On!!
