Hobstar Flower, Imperial   Updated 1/17/2009
Hobstar Flower has a dominant hobstar with groups of diamond shapes between them. According to Glen and Stephen Thistlewood in their journal Network, Hobstar Flower is Imperial's pattern #302, which is also found in a decanter or cruet identified sometimes as the Imperial pattern Crabclaw. Additional work by Glen Thistlewood established that the bowl known as Hobstar and Arches is also part of this line. The emerald green example shown here was photographed while in the collection of the late John Britt.
