A big thing in rubber gloves (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

berg

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'a big thing' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot see how one could define the other.

'in rubber gloves' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'BERG' is hidden within 'rubber gloves'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for berg that I've seen before include "African mount" , "trouble at sea" , "feature of icy waters" , "Small version of ice mountain" , "Large mass of floating ice" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
