Short History: Andy DavisThe Davises are West Virginia's first Family of Marble makers. His Father Jim began making marbles in 1991 after years in the glass making industry, and in 1990's his 5 brothers and himself began to join their father in the marble making business. His brothers Steve and Rick would continue on to make the vast majority of the marbles. Andy Davis was born in 1926 in Harrisville, West Virginia. At the age of 16, he began working for Mid-Atlantic Glass Co. In 1956, he moved to Ohio and joined a steel company, where he worked until his retirement in 1990. Five years later, in 1995, Andy built his own furnace and started crafting beautiful handmade marbles. By 1996, he expanded his craft to include spinning tops and bases for displaying them. In 2008, JABO Marble Company began producing special contract runs of 3/4" marbles, incorporating materials like gold lutz, silver, metallic, oxblood, and Aventurine, depending on investors' preferences. Andy took cullet from these runs and began making large, colorful 2" marbles and matching top sets, which quickly gained attention for their beauty and craftsmanship. Unfortunately Andy Passed away at the age of 95 on April 28th, 2022. ABOUT ME I am first and foremost a collector of many different types of antiques.
