This lovely rich cobalt blue swirl akro agate or slag glass marble gear shift knob was purchased over 20 years ago in West Virginia. It measures a tad shy of 2" in diameter with an opening for a fitting of nearly 7/8" across. While the other ones are all rounded, this one is more cushion shaped and it has ridges around the center that make it special from all that I've seen. The shifter has some factory imperfections which are to be expected. I would rate it as in excellent condition.
I believe it was manufactured by the Houze Glass Company in Pennsylvania, which closed down permanently about 3 yrs ago. This is an authentic art deco era slag glass style shifter that was never used. Thousands of these were uncovered at the time and all were new-old stock. I saved a few of my favorites and for the first time ever, decided to offer them for sale online. |
