The listing, Vintage Marbles...Set OF 4 has ended.
Set of 4 vintage marbles. I don't know anything about marbles...lol. I do know that the large one has the gold stripe (its called gold lutz), and the second one in looks either hand-made or just very, very old. I know the 3rd one is handmade, and I'm not sure about the 4th. They're all from mid 80's or earlier I believe...
That gold stripe is something newer that the glass blowing industry has been doing for the last 10 years or so. That should be actual gold dust mixed with glass in there. Not worth anything in gold, but it's a sign that it is newer. The other misshapen ones could possibly be vintage, if there are flaws then most likely it is old hand blown marble. The new stuff is far too clean and perfect.
