DESCRIPTION:
*Vintage Japanese Glass FISHING FLOAT.. Makers Seal Mark, Aqua Green (#66)
*
This is a Japanese glass fishing float.  It is approximately 9 1/2" inches in circumference (see note below regarding circumference measurement)*.  It is a beautiful aqua green color and has a maker's seal mark.  It is made of hand blown glass. This Japanese fishing float was actually used and has spent its life at sea. It has been picked out of hundreds of beachcombed and Japanese floats to offer because of its unique qualities and characteristics. Its thick heavy glass contains impurities, inclusions and bubbles that are intrinsic to the Japanese manufacturing process.  It is in good and sound condition with normal wear one finds on fishing floats that have survived years of use in the ocean.  This is a very collectible rare float that will be a great addition to any collection.   This is a rare float also because it has a makers mark on its pontil and its beautiful aqua green color (see photos).
