It is in excellent used condition with no chips and ready to be used as a bird feeder, candle holder, the start to a great light fixture, a paper weight (wrap wire around the top to make a photo clip), book ends or whatever else you can repurpose it for.

A LITTLE HISTORY AND A FEW DETAILS ABOUT

The Hemingray 42 Glass Insulator

The Hemingray 42 was one of Hemingray’s most popular insulators and was made from 1921 to the 1960s. It was intended for telegraph usage and was found all over the U.S. on telegraph poles beside railroad tracks. This glass insulator with drip points, or a pattern of “bumps” on the bottom of the insulator that creates a scalloped edge, now serves as décor in our homes or as collection pieces.
