A Vintage Whispler Marble

A Vintage Whispler marble, otherwise known as a European Fat-Core marble.

This is an opaque type, and is harder to find than the transparent variety. Detailed blending and strata combine with sophisticated opaque colours for plenty of interest and impact.

These mysterious vintage marbles were distributed in England during the 1950's and 60's by British firms including Irene Manufacturing Company, Chad Valley Games, H.P. Gibson and Co. and T.S.L. Products, England; where they are readily recognised as a mainstay of many nostalgic and happy marble memories.

Appreciated for a amorphous, flowing character; often galactic or arctic in style, they sometimes seem to contain whole minute worlds within their complex organic structure.

They can sometimes resemble the American 'Master' marbles due to a similar manufacturing process. Transparent base types range from clear and intense to cloudy, misty and filamentous; with wispy vanes, and delightful floating clouds of tiny bubbles. The opaque varieties have detailed blending in a creamy, earthy and often moody palette.

This marble would make an ideal start to a collection, or an addition to a enthusiast's portfolio.

Size: Approx 14.5 mm or 9/16'' of an inch.
