Christmas baubles (5) - Glass

Set of 5 Authentic Japanese Glass Fishing Float Ornaments - Mini Size (2 inch) with Jute Net & Hanging Loop

Bring a touch of the Japanese seaside to your Christmas tree. This set of 5 mini glass fishing floats, each wrapped in jute netting with a hanging loop, makes a charming, one-of-a-kind ornament.

These authentic Japanese glass fishing floats were originally used as traditional fishing gear (buoys for fishing nets) in Japan. They were widely produced from around 1910 (Meiji 43) until plastic buoys replaced them. Today, apart from certain types of fishing such as octopus fishing, they are rarely made.

Each float was genuinely used in the fishing industry, so you may notice traces of sand, scratches, small bubbles in the glass, or slight cracks. These marks of age give every piece its own character - no two ornaments are exactly alike.

Ways to enjoy them:
- Hang them on your Christmas tree for a natural, coastal-style look
- Add them to a wreath, garland, window or mantelpiece
- Keep them up after the holidays as rustic, nautical decor all year round

A unique gift for anyone who loves vintage, nautical or Japanese-inspired interiors.

Size (approx.):
Diameter 4.8-5.3 cm (2.0 inch) per float, excluding the hanging loop
