How Marbles Are How Decorated !
What goes into the process of how marbles are made with specific hand applications ?
Join us as glass artisian Jim Storsberg demonstrates the fine art of glass detail work on machine-made marbles.
Jim describes and shows us the craft of stringer work, frit / confetti work and other related applications containing aventurine, lutz and goldstone that we find in some if our favorite collectable marbles.

We also look into the history of how these applications took hold and show similar examples of Christensen Agate, Vitro Agate, Vacor De Mexico, Jabo and New London Glassworks marbles.

On-factory footage in this video was filmed at the “Appalachian Sunrise” marbles run on May 4th 2022 at the D.A.S. Factory .

Thanks to Glassmaster Dave McCullough, West Virginia Swirl production is alive and well in Pennsboro, West Virginia!
