This is an H.G. CO./PATENT MAY 2 1893, back, PETTICOAT, SDP CD 160 in light but well scattered throughout milk-swirled aqua, which generally speaking, gives this piece the appearance of being very light jade milk. I have pictured it next to another Hemingray of similar aqua tone and vintage without any milk in an attempt to give the potential buyer some idea of the amount of milkiness or jade appearance this 160 has when underlit by a small flourescent bulb while sitting upon a clear shelf about two inches above this bulb. It has two partially nicked drips, in manner and appearance hard to tell they are nicked without a close inspection, and a small 1/8 to 1/4 by 3/4 area that is a no glass missing and very thin bruise on the base toward the inside. This is hardly noticeable, and the peice appears and is pretty close to mint. $100 includes shipping.
