Marbles11/16″ Unusual Antique German HandMade White Opaque & Translucent Pink

This is a 7 day auction for an Unusual 11/16″ Antique German Hand-Made White Opaque &Translucent Pink Marble in Great Condition with all over surface crazing. Because of the  crazing, I wouldn’t know how to properly grade this marble. There are no internal cracks or fractures, however, there is a small round shallow surface depression, in the white opaque white surface covering, near the top pontil that I believe is asmade. When backlit ( last 6 pictures ), the marble has a peachy pink translucent base glass with a a thin white opaque glass covering almost the entire surface. I purchased half a dozen, all different colors, from a German Dealer in Lauscha a number of years ago. I discarded 2 of them because they were too badly damaged. I have never before seen anything like these marbles and assumed they were dug marbles, although there is no dirt in the pontils, nor are they soiled in any way. Marble has 2 pontils. Any comments about this type of marble would be welcomed.

 As an integral part of the description, I have provided supersized pictures of the marble, from all angles, so you will have a good idea of what you would be . If you have , please do not hesitate to contact me through .
