I have both Master Made and Alley or Champion types of the solid aventurine, swirl, in green, marbles. The swirly ones, like the one that started this thread, in my estimation, came from Alley or Champion. The Master Made ones are made more like a, "sunburst". Anyway that is my take on them. _________________ marble monarch Back to top kris7047th Joined: 04 Aug 2007 Posts: 777 Location: Monroe,Michigan Posted: Wed Aug 15, 2007 4:23 pm    Post subject: So what do you think of this one?? It doesn't look *sunburst*y, and it is soo solid I guess you could say *swirly*?? Alley? HELP!! LOL! Kris I am adding four more views to show the construction. Thanks all!
