Here's a regular two-color Peltier NLR that has become as hard to find as some of the more famous three-color and hybrids. This is the Peltier National Line Rainbo WASP with four black aventurine ribbons meeting at two nearly invisible seams on a, super-rare for a Peltier, opaque red base glass. The aventurine is moderately heavy--enough that quite a lot of it has spilled over into the red.
I've been collecting and selling marbles for over 25 years now and I've never had very many Peltier Wasps, a half-dozen at most over the years. This is the first mint example I've been able to get my hands on in over three years, and I've been looking. CONDITION: MINT 9.6 The surface has the wet shiny look appropriate for a mint condition marble with no wear at all. There is an as-made tiny melted dimple, pictures two and three, and some pitting from the manufacturing process that is barely visible under lights and magnification, but shows up in these enlarged pictures. There are no blow-holes or bubble pops typical of Peltier opaque colored marbles. You may click here to view the grading system I use. Size 15.88mm or 0.625" at the equator. | |||||
