DESCRIPTION: Most of the "ZEBRA" types of the Peltier National Line Rainbo family of marbles are pretty straightforward-- black or colored ribbons meeting at two seems on the surface of a white glass marble. For this example, while the base glass is white, there are translucent streaks reminiscent of Peltier's old-style CITRUS marbles. Also, there are at least three hues of red in the ribbons.
The aventurine content of this example is very light; in fact, there are only a few specks of the sparkly stuff scattered here and there, mainly in the darker portions of the red stripes. However, considering the marble's rarity, finding a RED ZEBRA with any amount of aventurine is an event to be heralded. Once again, the inability of my pictures to capture the strict amount of aventurine has shown itself. However, as with all of my marbles, Your 100% satisfaction is guaranteed. If for any reason, you are not satisfied with your purchase, all of your money will be refunded, including the return shipping charges. CONDITION: 9.6 The surface has a beautiful wet shine with no sign of handling at all. A couple of tiny dimples and shallow holes from surface air bubbles are all readily visible in the pictures.
