    Name of Collectible: Dark Green Glass Threadless Egg Insulator, Civil War Era
    This item Sold for $1,481.86. (Click Image to View Auction).
    eBay seller: mhlatkeblast.net
    Description by seller: “A beautiful glass insulator that I discovered in a box lot purchased at an estate sale. I am not an insulator collector and only held onto this because I remembered that the threadless design meant that it’s older and more rare so I decided to research it. From my limited research, this appears to be a threadless egg glass insulator from the mid to late 1800’s. It is very thick dark glass that appears almost black without a direct light. From the pictures, you can see it glows a lovely teal/dark blueish green when a bright light is shined inside. The glass is beautiful with lots of very tiny air bubbles”.

    Definitely a cool collectible capturing the number one spot for the highest sold Insulator on eBay in the month of May 2015.
