A transparent-clear base glass has powder blue, yellow, and translucent white applied in the old End Of Day EOD pattern that measures from pole to pole. Known to more senior collectors as a BANDED TRANSPARENT SWIRL or, as some newer collectors are calling, a TRANSPARENT INDIAN.
Judging by the unfinished pontail marks on each end of the marble, I would estimate a production period of the late nineteenth to early twentieth centuries, circa 1880-1910. CONDITION: NEAR MINT The surface retains a nice shine, but a few tiny dimples and pinpricks have picked up traces of dirt over the years. The Pontail marks are much cleaner than most, but again, there are traces of dirt. Toward the Southeast edge of the sixth picture, a yellow stripe exhibits a surface air bubble. Still, this is a rare marble and very hard to find, certainly not to be dismissed for the few inconsequential comments here. The condition of this marble is NEAR MINT, which means that there is very little wrong with it, just a little less than perfect. You may click here to view the grading system I use. Size 14.32mm or 0.564" at the equator. | |||||
