Two Marbles, what kind, and how old?

[Ant]

I found these marbles at a lot that dates back to at least the 1800, most of the finds are from the early teens and twenties, but every now and then a late mid to 1800 find pops up. I think one might be a quartz marble, the white peril looking one, what about the blue one? The white peewee and the standard size cat-eye marble are for scale, and to compare the glass to fired or mineral type.

What do you think?

I believe the blue one is a bennington late 1800's or early 1900's. Not sure on the white one.

That's right,, The different colored bubbles, or dimples are from were they touched during the kiln process
They would fire many at a time
