An arc of milk over the dome and swirls of milk and bubbles of varias sizes show throughout this insulator. The colors are varied and range top to bottom from dark lavender to light lavender and gray overtones. The huge base bubble, open to the inside, is filled with rattling beads of carbon tops this extremely interesting Denver and is a must for the Junk-in-glass and Denver collector. Please note that it was very difficult to photograph the milkiness..I am a total amateur with my photography, and the piece is much better in person and with under or toplighting. As far as faults, there is one pinhead on the base mold line...that's it!! Milky purple lists in the Guide for 400-500. I want to just get what I paid for it, which was $225. Add shipping and it's yours. Please let me know if you are interested. There are three photos...two are to follow this one
