This is a carefully curated set of 8 authentic vintage Japanese glass fishing floats, featuring a beautiful variety of sizes, shapes, and colors.
These floats date to the mid-20th century and were originally used by fishermen along the Japanese coast. Each piece is hand-blown, displaying unique characteristics that reflect traditional craftsmanship and practical use at sea.
Provenance & Usage
Most of the floats in this set were actually used in fishing operations, showing natural signs of age and use that enhance their authenticity and character.
One piece in the set is an olive-colored rolling pin-shaped float, which is said to have been stored for many years in the home of a former fisherman in Hokkaido.
While its exact production period is unknown, it offers an interesting contrast to the other floats that were used in actual fishing.
This contrast between used and unused pieces adds depth and storytelling value to the collection.
