Identification summary

The Peltier Black Wisp is a highly sought-after machine-made marble from the early 20th century. It is characterized by a dark, nearly opaque appearance in ambient light that transforms into a vibrant, translucent green when backlit. This effect is caused by the density of the dark glass 'wisps' layered over a transparent green base.
