White with Aventurine Ribbon/Band


KBL104

Recommended Posts

Drawing a blank....I thought I had seen the four on top in one of Stephen Bahr's videos, but am working my way through 1000+ marbles before our show and I'll be darned if I can find or remember what they were.

The four on top are nice white with aventurine green ribbon and measure .60-.61

The bottom one is similar, but not seeing aventurine - instead a very light tan on the ribbon with "patch" on the bottom.  Included it in the pictures in case can help with that one as well. Measures .63

This group has been a lifesaver for me just learning marbles (I'm not on facebook); so appreciate the help from everyone!

The marble king is the only one that has a green patch AND green ribbons. The pelts will only have the equatorial ribbons, no additional patch. This is why the marble king pattern is referred to as a "patch and ribbon" style.

So yes, MK on bottom, other 4 are Pelts.

Learning the patterns of Peltier Rainbos and Marble King Rainbows (the two types here) is a great way to start out as they are simple and usually easy to identify, and they account for a LOT of marbles you will come across. Marble Kings are typically more strict with their colors and patterns so I'd say they are easier to learn, but Peltier Rainbos become easy if you learn what to expect from their structure and how to spot it in wonky or unusual examples. Just know that there is much more variability in coloration and patterns on Rainbos than Rainbows. Yes the spelling matters :)
