This old yoyo is some type of plastic, most likely celluloid or bakalite. Hot Pink and Blue with Black marble edges. No markings.

Wow, is it a custom job. I thought you might get an answer on here… Some of the wisest minds on yoyos current and historical around.
It’s weird looking.
How wide & tall is it?
Is bakelite but not the old duncan ones
That is an odd one for sure.
It is about 2.25" across and 1" tall. I think it is celluloid. The pink and blue colors are puffy and hollow sound when I tap them.
It looks like a custom job to me, but they’re usually wood.
Does it twist apart? Is the axle fixed or does it have a ball bearing between the two halves?
I had to use a flashlight but looks like the axle is a metal piece. I can turn the two halves a bit but it then goes out of round and does not seem to want to twist apart. The string looks like it is knotted around the axle. I don’t see a ball bearing.
