Another couple snowy Brookfields from the great Canadian North. Although Canada may have a lot of snow during the right times of the year, the insulators don't normally contain quite as much, unless Brookfield shipped it's junk up here like it so often did!

On the left is a [110] Brookfield CD 164, with the mould number below "BROOKFIELD", and a rounded base. The piece looks pristine, as the worst damage I can find is the normal flaking of the mould line around the inside edge of the base - likely factory applied. Nothing to fret about here - except all the white potstone chunks stuck inside! Oh, and as an added bonus, it's got a whole bunch of amber swathing throughout the dome and front crown!

On the right is a [053] example of the Brookfield CD 121 with just BROOKFIELD on the front skirt, and a rounded base. I have heard that these tend to come primarily out of Canada, and I admit I have seen a couple around. The glass on this one is a Brookfield blue colour - quite deep & colourful, actually. As with the first piece, many, many chunks of white potstone dot the inside of the glass - really very beautiful! The damage on this one consists of two chips on the front upper wire ridge - one 3/8" by 1/4", and the other 1/2" by 1/4" - as well as one chip on the right inside edge of the base - of the variety quite normally found on these rounded base Brookfield's. It measures 3/4" long by 3/8" deep. The damage sounds worse than it really is, believe me, and the potstones and colour more than make up for it!

I'm asking $24 U.S. plus shipping for the pair. I accept personal cheques from any member of ICON, or anyone I've dealt with before. Feel free to email with any questions, or for more photos!

How about $20 U.S. plus shipping for the pair?
