Antique Brookfield CD 147 [030] Spiral Groove Glass Insulator – Patented Oct. 8th 1907Nice early Brookfield CD 147 spiral-groove glass insulator in an attractive aqua/blue-green color.Embossing reads:PATENTED
OCT. 8TH 1907This embossing configuration corresponds with the CD 147 [030] Brookfield variation documented by insulator collectors.The glass has excellent early manufacturing character, including numerous bubbles/seeds, pronounced swirling and flow lines, waviness, and crude tooling characteristics. The heavy glass and spiral-groove design display especially well when illuminated or placed near a window.This example has considerable age-related surface wear, scuffs/scratches, staining/residue and manufacturing irregularities. Please examine all photographs closely. There are small edge/rim imperfections as pictured. The prominent lines visible through the dome/body appear consistent with the crude manufacturing character of the glass, but I have photographed them clearly so the buyer can make their own assessment.Details:* Manufacturer/attribution: Brookfield
