LUTZ, Onionskin. Remelted Onionskin Lutz. This was a white Onionskin Cloud Lutz that was heavily damaged. The consignor reports that he had a couple marble "repairers" work on the marble, and the result is unfortunately what you see here. The air bubbling and cloudiness is the result of a botched remelt. I think at this point you would have to have the surface ground down to reveal the core. Luckily none of the lutz burned during the remelting. Sold as-is, view the images. Germany, circa 1860-1920. 1-15/16". Remelted.
