My first thoughts when I saw this marble, with just the green, yellow, and dark brown showing was, this is the biggest BLACKEYED PEA I do believe I've ever seen. But after the inspection and photography, the purple and white grabbed my attention, as well as the moderate sprinkling of fine AVENTURINE particals in the green, I began to think I may have a very nice 5-color PARROT here. I am still not sure, so I'm not calling it one or the other, but both and let some of you experts out there name it for me. Either way, with all the contrasting colors, and aventurine, and the large size, making up such a lot of eye-appeal, we have a honey of a Vitro Agate marble--whatever you want to call it.
