Over years travelling back and forth to London on the East Coast mainline, the previously nondescript overhead electrical wiring began to reveal a hidden beauty. In particular, the forms of the ‘pin insulators’ began to command attention. Their utilitarian yet beautifully-curving forms are generally in glass or ceramic, and they act to prevent the discharge of electrical current down the posts which support the overhead power cables.
