This is one of the earliest signed and dated torch worked boro marbles you'll find out there, made clear back in 2000 near the beginning of the marble movement. Both Jesse Taj and Malachi worked on this one, and the vortex is WAY sweeter in hand than I was able to capture in these pics. It is very deep and bright, with two layers of dichro! The 3rd pic actually shows it best - those dichro diamonds are in the 2nd layer, floating over top of the first layer of dichro. SO cool in hand! On the backside there is a twisted rasta pattern, with 5 butterflies flitting around the equator. That butterfly milli is some of the earliest boro milli around! This is really a historic and fun marble, a sweet specimen for a special collection. Signed 'Taj 2000 Wilkinson'.
