Looks like a trade off. Loose part of the base embossing but gain a very cool under pour. The embossing PAT SE is lost in the under pour but we end up with a unique insulator in a nice blue color. There is a wire groove chip that shows in the photo. There is additional roughness and minor chipping along the upper ridge of the wire groove. A good looking unusual insulator in a popular style. Asking $45.00 plus actual shipping cost. Check, money order or PayPal, no fee. "No Hard Time" refund, always. Insured up to $50
