More Block Optic - Sugars Have Different Shapes

Last post we showed two of the varied cup shapes in Hocking's Block Optic. This shows two of the sugars. There are two more shapes besides these two; one is flat and the other is similar to the yellow version show except it has a larger foot and is more flared.

One of the give-aways for glass from Hocking is the cute scrolled handle on the yellow sugar. It is the same shape as the handle on the cup we showed last time.

There are matching creamers for these sugar shapes too. In our area, mid-Michigan, the two we show are the most common.

Many people enjoy collecting creamers and sugars. You can see that Block Optic will be fun and a bit of a challenge with its multiple variations!
