Description
Hemingray No. 42 Aqua Blue Glass Insulators (3): Three stunning aqua blue glass insulators marked HEMINGRAY on the skirt, two appearing to be the classic CD 145 style and one slightly taller variant marked No. 19 or similar. These beauties show the characteristic ribbed dome, beaded base skirt, and threaded inner bore. Color is a rich, consistent aqua blue with excellent clarity and no major chips noted.
Hemingray Clear Glass Insulator - Standard Style (1): A petite clear glass insulator bearing the HEMINGRAY embossing on the lower skirt. Classic dome shape with horizontal ribbing and smooth inner threading. A clean, understated example perfect for display alongside its colorful cousins.
Hemingray Clear Glass Insulator - Double Groove Transposition Style (1): The showstopper of the lot. This large clear glass insulator features a dramatic triple-fin or double-groove transposition crown sitting atop the ribbed dome body, marked HEMINGRAY on the wide beaded base. A distinctive and less common style that commands attention on any shelf.
Porcelain Brown Glaze Insulator - Large (1): A chunky, unglazed-base brown porcelain insulator with a dark olive-brown drip glaze finish. Thimble-shaped profile with a single wide groove around the lower body. No visible maker mark detected. Classic telegraph-era ceramic construction.
Porcelain Dark Brown Glaze Insulator - Small (1): A smaller companion porcelain insulator finished in a deep brown-black glaze with two visible tan clay lines ringing the body. Beehive dome shape sits atop a wide flared skirt. No visible maker mark. Pairs beautifully with its larger ceramic counterpart.
Hemingray Clear Glass Insulator - Standard Style Duplicate (1): A second clear glass standard-style insulator from Hemingray, matching the smaller clear example with ribbed dome, threaded bore, and embossed maker name. Solid condition with light surface wear consistent with age and outdoor use.
