German Contemporary-Vintage (Really)

A very unusual marble with great history.  Identification was made with the help of both Brian Estepp as well as Mark Capel.  This marble is considered a contemporary, but is between 40 and 50 years old and was made in Germany.  This is determined by the glass used as well as method.  Marble shows a wonderful pattern in a great size.  Also shows lutz that is not normal.  Do not remember what Brain said it was.  Marble is flawless with the exception of being slightly out of round.  An incredible find.  Please check thumbnail for more great pics.
