MINT 1-9/16" Antique German Handmade LOBED SOLID CORE Swirl

Item# GM1533
Four exceptionally bright ribbons are fused to form high ridges and low valleys at the center of a clear base glass and mirrored by four yellow lattice ribbons at the surface. This is one of the best designed marbles I've ever seen of this or any other type; everything is perfectly centered and evenly space. The basal pontail mark is exquisitely ground and faceted and the opposite is a faint melted pigtail melted nearly to oblivion.
CONDITION: MINT 9.4 Beautiful wet, shiny surface with no evidence of wear of any kind. There is one small area that looks like there was a bit of surface fizz or possibly some debris on the artist's finishing tools; whatever it is, it is melted and so faint as to be hardly visible without a bright light and lens. You can almost see it at the top of the first picture. Also, there is one tiny pinprick.

Size 43.6mm or 1.54" at the equator.
