Vintage Porcelain Pylon Insulator fire poker before being sold to TwiningsThis vintage porcelain ceramic pylon insulator is a neat bit of industrial history, but we think it would make a really great repurposed candle holder! Whether you want to style it on a shelf as its original intended object, or fashion a new use for it, it's definitely an interesting object to display in your home. The ceramic body is in good condition and there is a nice graphic transfer that shows a hand holding a torch.
