glass marble
Clear playing sphere
A glass marble is a small spherical ball made of glass, used in children's games or collected for their decorative patterns.
The swirls, colors, and clarity of glass marbles vary widely, from common machine-made varieties to prized handmade examples: He traded three cat's eyes for one shooter.
Glass distinguishes these from marbles made of clay, steel, or stone.
