Is it a christensen?

No Christensen, IDK what it is for sure. but you can rule those two out.  By a process of elimination you'll get close. I think there were a few different manufacturers that made very similar marbles that's what makes this one somewhat difficult to positively I.D.

I think you may have explained why I still have this one Chad. Lol I havent been able get a confident answer on this one and it is honestly one of the coolest mibs I think I own. Green mibs that is. Thank you for your feedback! I appreciate you taking the time to explain for me.

It’s a Pelt Miller Swirl. It spins Counter Clockwise🔥

RAR

No color inside of the matrix, never seen another pelt like it. Yes the outside design resembles a miller type swirl pattern but still not seeing pelt ??

The size is a classic Ravenswood size--just a hair large---I would consider Ravenswood here.

Ravenswood made more 9/16" marbles than any other maker.

The white in this marble is more than likely "Opal". (Opalescent glass)

Ravenswood was/is known for it's "Intense White" batch glass--( batch glass meaning made by the manufacturer on site from a home recipe )

These type do come from a variety of makers and they do not get much attention in the ID world--they are a hard ID for sure.

I just threw my hat into the ring here:wub:.--Yep, I still suck at wvs ID:dunno:.

The "Opal White" is what brings your/my eye to this one imho. "Opal" just lights a marble up to the next step.

Ponds "cold cream jar" cullet was used quite often in making marbles.

I do not rermber if Ravenswood used it or not--probably--but no proof here.

My second choice would be Champion here.

It is a very attractive marble--especially with your hand on the images.

Marble--On!!
