I had to look at this marble several times with a bright light, and then a back light, just to make sure of the colors: what at first appears to be red, blue, and black, turns out to be red, cobal blue, and a dark, dark indigo/inky blue. With so many Popeyes being called hybrids now days, I hesitate to even use the term, but in this case it is deserved because the indigo is a totally discreet color from the cobalt.
The base glass is crystal clear with just the perfect amount of the defining white wispy threads to contrast with the deep colors and to leave a window to view the gorgeous interior. CONDITION: MINT 9.5 The surface has a wet glossy shine as a mint marble should with just the slightest bit of localized wear and a very few scattered miniscule as-mades, most invisible without the aid of a bright light and lens.
