I have had these for awhile and have posted them in the past to get info on them, but no luck.. I really like these. One has some clear glass and the others kinda remind me of a peaish construction... sorta.

Rhonda, they are vitro. The first one has the helmet type construction. The others look like aquamarines. Sissy |

I never would have guessed that for either types, but what do I know..if I did, I wouldn't have asked. LOL Thank you Sissy. I do see what you mean about the *helmet* construction and there is a ribbon above the clear glass. Have you/anyone seen many other examples of any of these before?

I have a box of 25 of the helmets. there are 5 rows of 5 different kinds in my box. I have 5 or the aquamarines or ultramarines (I can't remember which they are called) I'll do pics of those for you another day. |

I agree with Sissy on the aquamarines. These two specimens are low on other colors besides the aqua color, (compared to others). I would put them in a bag, and compare the color to your collection. You probably have more.
Aquamarines are a type of TriLite which collectors named due to it's specific color. There are some on a transparent base, and those are my favorite, while I have them in hand. I just bought two on the bay for opening bid a couple weeks ago.
Helmets are a simplified type of TriLites. So, they are close. However, if that first mib were in my collection it would be in my TriLite box. Deep and heavily colored TriLites are my favorite Vitro mib.
