Only three colors, four if you count the two greens, adorn this old Vitro Giant; but there is a lot going on for the colors there are. The huge green patch seems to occupy about 40% of the marble's surface and it all has shiny, shimmering, aventurine. I must say though that the dark green portion appears to be a little heavier in that department. For a patch marble there is a lot of exciting swirling action going on. This one is a centerpiece for any collection, especially VITROs, or even a display of Parrots.
CONDITION: MINT(+) 9.7 or better. The surface is beautifully wet and shiny with no sign of play or wear of any kind. Also, with as much aventurine as there is in this marble, there is an odd lack of any bubble or aventurine pops. The surface is nearly perfectly clean.
