This is one of the earliest ocean bottom marbles from Kobuki that you'll ever find and that I've ever seen, made in the later 90's or very early 2000's. Could be his first for all I know. These are the more simple, muted colors that John had to work with at the time. This is a very historic marble, as John was one of the very first to make marbles like this, and his anemone are already awesome! Amazing to have a piece like this in the collection!
