I was originally calling this dark orange amber, but I have been informed that this is actually more a dk red amber. How's this for a real hot colour? Beautiful Hemingray /patent May 2 1893 (R Skirt) Petticoat. I would tend to call this a real deep red amber which really is a beauty when backlighted. This piece has 8 flaked/partially chipped drips, a small, shallow fingernail sized chip on the skirt chipping 2 of the mentioned 8 drips, this is near the mould line. No bruising from any of the drips and just a tough of light nibbling around the wire groove lip's edge. Glass is a touch dull, but shows colour great. More pix on req, you are seeing the base pic for drip damage and the colour. Book is $175.First mail to me.... $100 shipped in USA/CANADA, other countries I will assist with shipping.
