This style is an unmarked Armourlight made in  England for export to Australia and New Zealand.  The metal top is to avoid AM radio interference with copper or aluminum to match the conductor wire.  This is a two part multipart insulator where the glass shells are cemented together. 

Original CD assignment from Glass Insulators From Outside North America published in 1993 by Marilyn Albers & N.R. Woodward.
