Ric Posted March 20 Report Share Posted March 20 I believe those are modern Mexican or Asian marbles - generally called "confetti style", but aome might have names that I don't know. I think the likelihood of finding and authenticating a Vitro Confetti "in the wild" is slim to none. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While the marble was being made, there were different colors thrown over the little orbs as they passed down the roller. Yours are well covered. No swindle here unless you paid too much. 20 bucks or under would be a good deal. Marble—On!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All four sides please (Does a marble have four sides?😁). Nice buy regardless. I would pay up for these for sure--cheaper than a bag of chips! Marble--On!!
