Oxblood ??

Recommended Posts

So I have 4 of these. Seen one on blocks auction that one sold for 180 Mint that had oxblood,mica,and aventurine and it’s a rare Heaton. Mine has aventurine I think mica but only like specs and the line look the same as what they said was oxblood on the marble but this one is only NM+++ as it has one minor chip

I see the faint OXB Horse hair and trace AV. I see bubbles but no mica. I’m curious who made it. $180???? I don’t see how or why it’s that expensive IMHO🔥

Had 7 bids on it sold for 180 said it was rare in the description it’s full of aventurine had oxblood on it also theres had mica aswell

Mica is associated with handmade marbles--nuff said.

Aventurine is a machine made thing--nuff said.

Yours is a wvs--probably an Alley agate--a nice one.

Block would have never crossed the two unless it was a typo.

I do not see either here.

It could be a Heaton but the specks are just specks imho.

Just a result of the marble making mystery--.

Marble--On!!

Agree with Akroorka imthinking Alley  with horse hair trace a.v. usually happens in the green imho something with the chemicals in the glass both unintentional killer marble 

 No mica in vintage machine made marbles that I know of.  

Could be wrong but...

Wait ! Is the last pic the same marble as the OP or is a different one🔥

Same marble. The marble overloaded with AV I just have to hold it at an angle in the light to show it.

It’s just dark green. First picture got a bright light on it that why they look different

I thought this when I found them. But I don’t like to bring names in to it but I asked a Heaton specialist plus they is not just one listed/sold/auctioned  as Heaton atleast 10 different people also I did come across one just like it as alley but it was not the same.
