Marbles are often mentioned in Roman literature, and there are many examples of marbles from ancient Egypt. They were commonly made of stone, metal, or glass until the 18th century, when ceramic marbles become more common.
Ceramic marbles entered inexpensive mass production in the 1870s.

Yes, marble and clay were the first materials used to make marbles

I think it had more to do with the way they look than what they were made of. But I don't know. I think they're just made of glass that has the marbled look or effect.
