    This range, designed in 1969, was originally called Iceberg and comprised a vase, a candle holder, a bowl, a small bowl/ashtray and an oval jardiniere.

    The green bowl weighs 1098 grams. H 7.5 cm Diam. 18 cm 16 points
    The blue bowl weighs 1128 grams. H 5 cm Diam. 17.5 cm 12 points
    The green bowl has much thinner walls than the blue one, though I can't think why. Like the Hobnail range they are very tactile.

    There are no black lines running down from the points to the base. It's an optical illusion which I cannot explain.

    In 1993-1994 after the demise of Sklo Union the Iceberg range was re- launched as 'Hopkirk'!!!

      You're so right, racer. Do you have Marcus Newhall's book on Sklo Union?
    4. racer4four racer4four, 11 years ago
      Yes I do. Recently got a copy and it's a good thing!
      Hope to see more of your pieces!
