Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:12604971 |
Beautiful and very rare, 19th century 2 1/4" diameter, Hand Blown, Multi-Colored Onionskin Marble. This wonderful, antique marble features a solid sphere of yellow, red and green spatters just below the surface of the Marble creating the “look” of the skin of an onion.
We are not marble collectors but have just obtained this marble (along with others we are offering this week on eBay) from an estate here on Cape Cod. Please forgive us if we do not properl...y describe the Marble using the correct terminology and please see the scans below for a good representation of the type and condition of this Antique Marble.
The surface of this Onionskin Marble has roughness basically covering the entire surface but no large chips. The surface is 100% original and the Marble has never been polished or ground. The Glass is clear and has no clouding or discoloration but the rough surface does give it a clouded “look”.
A rare and very attractive, 19th century Large Size, Hand Blown, Onionskin Glass Marble and a wonderful addition to any collection!!!
