Francis is one of the early legends of the marble world, creating his marbles up in Canada with a furnace using soft glass. Suuuper nice guy, and one of the most fun facts about Francis is that he was featured on the hit series "How It's Made" where he demonstrated his entire art glass marble making process! It was really cool to watch. Take a close look at this piece to see all of the detail. Somehow Francis wound that cool cane all through this marble like a long worm, and it's SO clean! Super cool looking in hand, you gotta see it. Everyone needs a historic Coupal marble in their collection!! Signed 'FC 06'.
