The Nickel Guy Posted Wednesday at 09:39 PM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 09:39 PM I just posted another marble with a similar sounding title (Vitro) but I think this is of a different maker with some similarities. This one has cool bubbles in a pretty blue colored base. This patch looks more brushed on and it also has a dark brown mixed in with the white. This one is not UV reactive. 5/8th in diameter. I have no idea what it is but with some more help I might be able to get better at ID-ing these unfamiliar types. As always, thanks for your thoughts and knowledge shared. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted Wednesday at 11:06 PM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 11:06 PM This is tricky. Can you post pics showing each seam in the horizontal position? So far the color combo looks Peltish to me but the white patch look like it’s intentional veneered. This is a killer keeper for sure🔥 RAR 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nickel Guy Posted yesterday at 12:18 AM Author Report Share Posted yesterday at 12:18 AM Thanks Fire! It is made tricky because of my unskilled photography and frustration. Here it looks like a green base but it is still blue. Well, maybe aquamarine? This doesn't even look like the same marble but it is. I really think this shows oxblood which I did not detect before. It is a pretty dark marble. Unfortunately besides the hits, it has a couple fractures which I tried my best to show. I did not see them before until I put this light on it. I hope I have shown both ends of the seams. But . . . I still like it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire1981 Posted yesterday at 03:18 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 03:18 AM I see Vitro OXB/Purple for starters IMHO🔥 RAR 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nickel Guy Posted yesterday at 03:23 AM Author Report Share Posted yesterday at 03:23 AM No this one does no glow. It will go in the Vitro section. I am glad it has oxblood so I can study that. It is a strange one. Maybe somebody else has something similar. Thanks again Fire, you have helped me out a lot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted yesterday at 03:23 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 03:23 AM I’m trying to figure out if the seams are off set. If you hold the marble between your finger tips. Hold it with one seam running horizontal. Then turn the marble like is a globe and see if the other seam runs vertically. These are called “offset seams”🔥 RAR 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted yesterday at 03:26 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 03:26 AM It might not. If it does. Then it’s Vitro. The off set seams is a Vitro trait. 🔥 RAR 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
