Yoshinori Kondo & Josh Sable: "Envelopmental Genius" Size: 1.45" Price: SOLD

All collaboration marbles are rare to some extent, some more than others - but this collab is VERY rare. Most collabs that incorporate Yoshi's work with an American artist are ones in which the American artist has used one of Yoshi's sections in their marble. But in this rare case, Yoshi actually created the marble himself using one of Josh's sections. Yoshi only made a very small number of these marbles back in 2011, maybe 5 or 6 of them, and other than those, virtually no other marbles exist which Yoshi created himself with American sections (at this point in time). This marble is simply incredibly rare, and thus incredibly valuable.

It is also incredibly cool!! It features a super sweet Sable retti surrounded and enveloped by Yoshi's stellar dot work. Yoshi's dot work has evolved over the past few years, so you'll notice this looks different than what he does today. That makes this an incredibly historical piece, which will some day be viewed as the early years of this ultra glass genius, coupled with the work of an American glass master. This is one of those rare jewels which the collector's collector MUST HAVE. Don't be kicking yourself 10 or 20 years from now! Or even 5....
