    Rare Antique Japanese Hand-Blown Glass Fishing Floats, 3"-4", Hokkaido
    Description
    We are thrilled to introduce a collection of seven antique Japanese glass fishing floats, each with its unique design and history, made from hand-blown glass. This set is a true treasure for collectors and enthusiasts of maritime artifacts.
    🎣 History 🎣 These antique hand-blown glass floats were once indispensable in the daily lives of fishermen in the tranquil waters of Japan. Crafted with meticulous care and skilled technique, these floats were released into the vast sea and, over time, were gently reclaimed by the shores. They carry with them stories of the sea, the fishermen, and the eternal dance between humans and nature.
    🌊 Description 🌊 This collection, arriving from Hokkaido, includes antique fishing floats made from hand-blown glass that were actually used in fishing. As a result, their glass surfaces have become frosted, featuring unique patterns created by wear and tear. The set includes one "Made in Japan" and one 川口"Kawaguchi" marked float, each symbolizing their rarity and the craftsmanship of Japan. The sizes of the floats range from 3 inches to 4 inches.
