Vintage Japanese GLASS FISHING FLOAT. Makers Mark, Net, Moss Green (#50)

This float is approximately 11.5 inches in circumference including its net (see note below regarding the circumference measurement)*. It is made of hand blown glass. This is a Japanese fishing float was actually used and has spent much of its life at sea. It has been picked out of hundreds of beachcombed and Japanese fishing 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 the normal wear one finds on fishing floats that have survived years of use in the ocean. The float has a maker's mark on its pontil (see photos). The float is a beautiful rich moss green color (see photos). It is made of thick heavy glass with interesting bubbles and striations. It has a full original net (there are a few breaks in the net see photos). It is a beautiful moss green color and has many interesting bubbles and striations. Every vintage float is different and this one has many beautiful unique features (see photos).

*NOTE: The distance around a sphere, or in this case a float, is known as the circumference.
