Collector's notes
A few quick rules before you bid.
Is it real marble?
Genuine marble is heavy and feels cold to the touch, and shows irregular veining. Resin and cast "cultured marble" tend to feel lighter and warmer, with repeating patterns.
Mind the finish
Marble is a relatively soft stone that etches under acids like vinegar or lemon. Ask sellers about chips, repairs and surface etching, and request photos from several angles.
Reading a marble
Handmade glass marbles often show a rough pontil scar where they were snapped off the rod, while machine-made ones usually carry faint seam lines. Condition and rarity drive value.
