Railway Insulator Pot

This is a "Type A" ceramic insulator pot, as used extensively on UK railways. The photo was taken inside a blackout tent with the main light source (a studio flash) at the top. Strips of white fabric were placed just out of view in front to fill in the detail, and on both sides at the back to create the highlights.
