I have never seen one of these, can you name it?!


The DumpsteR BandiT

Recommended Posts

Good afternoon! 

  I live on an old greenery and find marbles a lot. I found this one in an old fire pit. This marble has some unique patterns but I am also one of those people who can see something in everything.  It feels rough. I can feel each individual "speck" / "freckle" (I am not sure of the proper term.), but yet it is still smooth. A predicament wrapped in a conundrum... Just like me. 

 

Anyone familiar with this type? 

 

Thank you for your time and help! I'm very grateful!

As Chad says here--a "frit" marble made by many many companies World wide.

The glass glob was cutoff onto the rollers and small specks of glass were sprinkled over the glass as it was rolled into a sphere. Of course, the sprinkled "Fret" was solid vs molten so it stuck to the surface of the marble, cooler than the glass glob was.

Size is always an important thing to consider when a Marble ID is needed.

I consider this one to be larger than one inch--maybe even two inches considering your finger at the bottom image.

So--It survided a fire Pit? I love it!

These are not too valuable, yours has nice coverage though.

 Pretty cool find, Nice share here.

You keep them coming DumpsteR BandiT.

I just love this stuff.

Marble--On!!
