ITEM No.: 25  CD No.: 143  EMBOSSING: none  COLOR: Purple and sage two-tone.  CONDITION: Minor lower wire ridge surface flake and a couple of very minor base flakes. An easy vnm.  SUMMARY: Due to the crude surface texture of the glass, this popular Canadian beehive is referred to by collectors as the ‘whittle mold’ style. The two-tone effect appears quite subtle until this insulator is displayed in a backlit showcase. The dome is primarily purple, fading to a smoky purple, then sage green in the skirt. View 1 is with indoor back lighting; View 2 is with natural outdoor lighting. A beauty!
