Japanese Glass Fishing Float, Stretched Tohoku, Nice Mark, Side Spindle, Green, Authentic Fish Net Buoy From Japan

Japanese glass fishing floats are popular collectors’ items and decor pieces. They were once used by fishermen in many parts of the world to keep their nets afloat. These Japanese hand made fishing floats were made and used by fishermen from Hokkaido Island of northern Japan and are real authentic floats. In Japan, glass fishing floats are being replaced by plastic and polystyrene making authentic glass fishing floats highly collectible. This float is from my own personal collection which we have collected over the past 40 years. Each float is bubble wrapped and packed securely.

One of a kind roller. It is a stretched green Tohoku roller. It has a nice bold mark on a very nice seal button. Has only one minor chip on seal button. It also has a nice thick side spindle where the glass melted and connected on the sides.
