Identification summary

This marble is a classic example of a West Virginia Multi-color Swirl, most likely produced by the Alley Agate Company. It features a base of opaque white glass with vibrant, intertwined ribbons of blue, yellow, and green. These marbles are highly collectible due to the complexity of their four-color composition, which is less common than standard two-color swirls.
