The description of this marble is going to rely heavily on the pictures. This marble's intangible "feel" reminds me of the early Peltier Citrus family.
The base glass is green, lightly tinted with blue, and at least six multicolored ribbons connect the seams. A Golden Dragon could have supplied the yellow one with the orange streaks. In the neighboring space, there is a blue-trimmed transparent green band. Toward the center, as shown in the first through third pictures, a two-toned yellow ribbon has a plum purple streak, one of the features that remind me of a Citrus. Also, in the fourth picture, you can see a clear line, another Citrus feature. Finally, you can see a nice transparent green or clear window to the inside in the sixth picture. If there is an assigned name for this old Peltier, I don't know what it is. I believe it is a National Line Rainbo, so I'll leave it at that. It is a lovely and intriguing marble and displays beautifully with the rest of my Peltier display. CONDITION: MINT 9.6 or better. The surface is wet and shiny as proper for a mint marble; however, I can detect a whisper of minor wear when using a loupe. None is visible to the naked eye or even these enlarged pictures.
