Three sets of alternating white and yellow lattice lines comprise the decorations residing on the surface of a crystal clear, bubble-free base glass.
Three broad and remarkably colorful ribbons make up the core. These are so precisely spaced and positioned that when viewed from the ends of the marble, fifth and sixth pictures, they present as if you were looking at a deep-lobed or ridged solid core. Notice how the precise spacing and twisting of the ribbons have resulted in apparently two entirely different marbles when comparing the two ends shown in those pictures. Their color pattern: green, white, red, yellow, and green again, and their near-perfect design, added to the twist of the marble, further adds to the glamour of the whole. You can easily get lost while examining the construction of this collector's jewel, especially with a loupe. CONDITION: MINT 9.6 The surface is wet and shiny-looking. I don't see any signs of handling at all; in fact, all I can find, and it's hard to tell from the pictures, is some dimpling from sub-surface fizz bubbles that has caused that area shown in the sixth picture to have a bit of a wrinkled look.
