Now that's what I call "Sparkly"! Nice score, Kris.

Well, I'll try to get images, later. 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 |

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!

i agree with patry - the MM avents have noticable poles, and you can see the rays radiating from them like a sunburst, even though it's totally green aventurine.
who makes those swirls with green avent on white, or blue & green on white? i would think that's who made this one. |
