John's amazing creations are increasingly hard to come by these days, mainly because these marbles are just so incredible that everyone wants one now. But alas, I have a rare 2023 offering here, and true to form - IT IS WILDLY COOL! A gorgeous spherical opal is nestled inside, with killer viewpoints from each side. John's flames are some one of my favorite elements that he sometimes includes, and these black flames are some of the coolest! The wonders of this marble are dedicated to the 2023 passing of one of marbledom's artistic glass legends - Chris Juedemann. Don't miss the addition of this special gem to the collection!
