Bob Coyle Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 Think any of those hand built insulators will ever show up on Antique Road Show for $2000??? Some were every bit as much a work of art and skill as some of the American Art Pottery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bciskepottery Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 Fascinating. Noticeable is the lack of protection from silica dust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark C. Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 I really enjoyed this film as I have Many old ceramic insulators . My favorites come from Molokai island in Hawaii and are very old ones with Albany glaze and have a reddish hue. Vs the straight brown Albany glazes ones that are a solid dullish brown.
