Dominion is a popular name in the Canadian Glass Telegraph Insulator collector's circle, along with the number 42D, and these insulators in Misty Green Colour have both attributes! Excellent condition, no chips or cracks.ย 

This model has the beautiful glass-dots all around the base, a nice touch by the glass maker! These little pieces of glass art make great paper weights, lovely matching book ends, or just as an item of affection or Canadianna on a shelf. Price is each. Made in Canada.

DID YOU KNOW? Glass insulators were used to prevent electricity from flowing from wires to supporting structures like poles or towers, ensuring the safe and efficient transmission of power and telecommunication signals. ย 

"These Dominion Glass Insulators were collected in the Ottawa Valley in the mid-1970's, although they were already old and somewhat collectible at that time, if you had the eye, and I've now protected them in storage for about 50 years." -Paul
