I love marble art! So, adding a beautiful marble to a beautifully twisted pull is icing on the cake! I carefully twist the piece.  Then slit one end into 4 segments and draw them into tines. I taper the opposite end into an elegant curl to attach the chain to. Finally, I add the beautiful marble and carefully close the tines to secure it. The total length of the piece itself is 6.5in. It comes with a chain extension of 5.5in. The total length is 12in. It's ready to connect to your existing ball chain fitting.  It has a beautiful steel finish. The marble color is a very dark red with swirls of pale white and green mixed through it. The marble is transparent, allowing light to pass through the swirls. The marble is 1in in diameter, giving you a solid piece to pull.
