schmoozer Posted 20 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 20 hours ago At 1-3/8”, this German swirl shouldn’t exist. No idea why someone thought it was a good idea to make it. Maybe an apprentice made it. I’m sure he failed the class. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schmoozer Posted 20 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 20 hours ago This one started the idea for this post. I listed it in the marble ID section. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akroorka Posted 3 hours ago Report Share Posted 3 hours ago This is not my best work, image-wise—just trust me here, it’s an ugly one. This is a clear based 1 ¼” “Bullet Mold” type with a “Pontil”, a big unfinished “Pontil”. It has a slight purple hue to it. It does have that slight glow under UV light like the older handmade marbles have. It has been sitting on my desk for months now—I just like it for some reason and I pick it up often just to feel the age and wonder about the intent of making it. Maybe intended to be in a claw foot table leg? I do not mind ugly one bit--in fact, I celebrate it when it can give some comfort and knowledge for sure. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some here. Nice Thread! Contribute here for sure Marble—On! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
