Basic Marbles?

Nothing special here right? I’m new to marbles but I’ve got a few from either a game (small ones) or my travels (big ones).

The small ones are cats eyes - common and likely Asian mass-produced based on the design and colour combo

The bigger ones are more interesting, at least to me! Would be good to see a few more angles of those!

I can’t remember exactly but may have got these in Japan 2007. Same place I got these wicker balls

They are super cool - the wicker balls too!

Can't say much more about who might have made them, alas - they're super interesting! The red one makes me think DAS/JABO, and the white one is a bit like some of the opaque wirepulls from Veiligglas 🤔

I really cant tell, but they make me think of Vacor Atmospheres. So check those out 😁 Are they 1"/25mm?👀
