Rare Jelly Red Twisty Razor Ribbon Swirl with Colorful Cage https://oldraremarbles.com/product/rare-jelly-red-twisty-razor-ribbon-swirl-with-colorful-cage/ Mon, 31 Jan 2022 21:53:37 +0000 https://oldraremarbles.com/?post_type=product&p=10338 Condition:  Near Mint +
Grade: 8.9
Size: 11/16"

Fabulous twisty razor ribbon swirl constructed with a Jelly Red transparent central stripe, then white on each side, then jelly red outside of that, and edged in yellow. There is an outer cage of ribbons that are so thin they look like lines. The cage is unusual too, as it is constructed with uncommon colors of jelly red backed in white, and jelly green backed in yellow. There is evidence of minimal use with just 4 small nicks, half are hidden close to the early pre 1880's faceted pontil.

Unique looking shooter-size grey color agate with many fine white rings and an elliptical white bulls eye. There are even fine rings within the grey from varying shades of grey. This marble was a kids favorite as subtle contact marks can be seen if you look closely.
