Early in his marble making career, Drew made beautiful flower marbles. This is an early one from 2001, signed 'AF 2001 56'. I assume the '56' means it is the 56th in this series, but I don't know how many flower marbles he made altogether. By 2003 or so he was done making them and had moved on to other designs. This particular flower is exceedingly beautiful and you just can't beat those colors!
