"Kisses"

Examples of kisses, irregular marks or gobs of glass usually on the skirt or dome, the result of two insulators touching before the glass was set. This usually happened as the insulators were placed on trays to enter the annealing lehrs, which "cured" the glass. While not common, they usually detract from a piece.
