Who got mine? They are big ass marbles. Four of them had some badass stands to go with them. You post mine ill post yours . Just wondering cause I got mine in today...

Show pics and I will make you some stands to go with my marbles that you have.

[Losiwells]

Ps...hey doc. The one from joe bray is cracked and it splintered in my hand. I can show you the pic with chip and drop of blood. Crap. Not yelling just wondering...

[glassdocnc]

Damn. It was perfect (and very nice) when it left here. I'm very sorry.

[richsantaclaus]

ok, I snuck away for a moment - here are my new marbles - thanks again!!!!!

[Losiwells]

Dear Santa,
I really like that big fumed marble. One that size you could tell the future. I have one of yours too.

Yours truly,
Losiwells

[richsantaclaus]

It's a really a pleasure to have such a BIG fumed marble that inspires emotional feelings just by focusing on the different patterns and shapes. It's like searching for that elusive shape that continues to change. I was SO lucky to get your marble - thanks!!!

[Losiwells]

You are very welcome...

If you tell me the size of it I will make a stand for it, one like you have never seen before. I know I should know the size but I sent out 8 of them and well I kinda lost track of the size of them. Pm your address and I will get it out to you if you want the stand. This goes for all who gets one of my marbles. I promise that you will like the stand as much as the marbles.

Thanks and enjoy.

THE DEPTH IS NOT DISPLAYED WELL IN THIS ONE ITS SOOOOO MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!!
























If you like photography you should check out her website, she does mainly fashion work ( thats what she gets paid to do ) but she takes wonderful pictures all around.

Hope you all like the pictures!!!

And who got marbles from me?! I havent seen any yet i believe! I hope you guys like the bag it came in!

[3musesglass]

I have pictures too. Not as nice as those pictures^.
Thank you everybody! These are all freaking awesome! I will try to match names with marbles later. I know the huge one on the stand is from Losiwells (Carlos). Man you must have some big guns, it's ginormous!

[Losiwells]

I see that you have one of the mibs with the stand. That particular one is the very first stand I made in that manner. The others out there are a little different in the texturing, but still unique.

As for the big mibs, well I use light weight boro so I can turn it without getting tired.
Enjoy.

I hope to pics up soon also. Thanks everyone. I'll post names as well.
