German Handmade · Late 1800s to Early 1900s (approx. 1860-1920)
Identification summary
This is a classic German handmade glass marble featuring a solid internal core. While 'Peppermint' traditionally refers to red and white swirls, the addition of blue makes this a 'Patriotic' or tri-color variation. The 'ridged' surface is a highly tactile and desirable feature among collectors of antique German glass.
