#3265 CD 120 Unmarked. Dark purple.
Purple glass with exceptionally dark density for this type item. These can be found in varying shades of amethyst and purple, this being among the darkest.
Although unmarked, this particular mold variant is generally classified as an "unembossed CEW" due to the moulding characteristics and overall contours closely match those of the embossed "C.E.W." units. The unmarked examples likely date circa late 1870's to early 1880's.
Some of the purple units have been found in the gold mining region of the Sierra Nevada Mountains in the general vicinity of La Porte, California.
A very attractive characteristic to some of these colorful ponies is a pinhole which ends well below the top of the insulator, resulting in an abundance of dome glass, which exhibits the the deep, rich coloration to great advantage. Such is the case with this beauty, which was been admired in a collection for over the past 15 years... last offered for sale in Pole Top Discoveries' March, 2008 auction.
Exceptionally nice, very near mint+ condition!
