Currently visiting Taketomi Island in Okinawa, Japan, and found these two glass marbles in about 15 minutes of beachcombing!
Both were partially buried in little rocky pockets along the shoreline, with just a tiny bit of glass visible. They’re perfectly spherical and look like actual marbles.
I couldn’t find much online about people finding sea marbles on Taketomi, so I thought I’d share!
Anyone know how to tell whether these are old Japanese toy marbles or something else?

Any info would be much appreciated! Just got these from an inherited storage unit and might start collecting now that I have a head start!

I’d like to find these a new home! Inherited all of these. No idea what they are or how much I should ask for them. Any help would be appreciated 😊

Hi! These marbles were my son’s godfather’s. He was young in the 30’s and lived in Texas. Any advice on them? I had posted the blue ones earlier last week and just found more so hoping for better I.d.’s
The majority of the collection was given to me by my grandmother in the 90s. That's when she gave them to me. I don't know if they're older than that. The tin is newer, like early 2000s but I believe it has old ones mixed in. I'm going to put the majority of the vintage looking colors in a jar on display. Any idea what any of these are called? Any that are valuable? I figured ask before just putting them in a jar.

Lots of old things found. Wondering if this one is special. It almost glows in the sunlight.

Mostly silver fume with a little bit of gold. This marble started out as clear tubing. Much love.

I recently cleared out my storage unit that has a bunch of my old toys and came across these old marbles. I have no idea really how I got them when I was younger or how to tell the difference between them. My grandparents are from Luxembourg and Germany and I’m nearly certain I got them from them but who knows where they got them. Initially google image searching isn’t resulting in anything of real interest but figured I’d run by some experts before parting with them. Any ideas in what I have here? I tried to sort them out by type and size as best possible. Thank you!

Its just white and thus thin stripe of red. Does it have value? Its kinda cool that its so bare. Maybe some small flea bites and dirt. Should i wash it?

Found a big box of marbles in a charity shop for a tenner, though mainly cat's eyes, so I asked to grab out a few. Got these all for £1. Not a collector so no idea on age or value. Anything older here?

I have these 5 marbles but I'm stumped? Jabo?
TIA

The vortex one and the second & third pic are my favorite two. Some look cool under a uv light ... Sorry I screwed up the heading. It won't let me edit it
