DAS Southpaw Marble

Gold Lutz and Mica

MINT

Run Date: May 8/24/15 

This DAS Southpaw marble manufacturing run was indeed and very colorful run with lots of variety throughout the production cycle. The color designer on this one was very good at combining the color palette of glass raw material to create some outstanding marbles. I am not positive, but my guess is that these marbles where made on the 5/8" machine as opposed to the 3/4" machine due to the slightly smaller size. 

This particular little gem is what we would call a Gold Lutz and Mica. The lutz means the marble has some gold sparkling glass on the outside. This lutz can be either chunky or a smooth dusting and both are rare and beautiful and add lots of pizazz to the marble. This marble is the chunky style and you can easily see the generous sprinkling of gold lutz chunks all over the glass surface. This is quite beautiful indeed. The added bonus on this particular marble is the beautiful contrasting obsidian mica (i.e. "black aventurine") that is very unique within this run. This in one nice Southpaw marble. 

I take my pictures with a Canon Rebel DSLR camera with built-in flash. I rotate the marble to give as much detail as possible to allow the buyer to make an informed decision if they like the style of marble or not. This marble was made on the 5/8" marble machine and it measures 0.640" in diameter with a pair of electronic calipers. Please note this marble was made on a 5/8" machine and therefore may be slightly smaller than one made on a 3/4" machine
