1970's BOC/Sparklets 'Iceberg' Ice Bucket

This is absolutely brilliant!  Where do we start to describe it - it's so iconic and of the period.  Here is an insulated ice-bucket manufactured by BOC (British Oxgen Company) as part of their 'Sparklets' range of bar accessories - you've probably heard of their soda syphons.  This is called the 'Iceberg' and it came with a pair of black plastic tongs which store neatly inside the lid and what they called a 'water separator' - a white plastic drip tray that sits in the base to allow the melting ice to drip through.  The body is made from black plastic with a chrome carrying handle, it has a gold coloured lid with a large clear plastic knob.  Marked to the base with 'BOC MADE IN ENGLAND MODEL No IB/1' and to the underside of the lid is written 'Sparklets, Trade Mark' in gold lettering.  This would look absolutely amazing on an original 1970's bar - it's amazing and we love it!  Please see all photographs for alternative views and close-ups.
