Presented are authentic hand blown old Japanese glass fishing floats and Asain jugs, all in excellent condition. They are without chips, scratches or sand blemishes. These are the largest floats you will see anywhere, except from us. The diameters are either 16 or 17"  with a maximum GIANT 53" circumference. Weight is an unbelievable 21 to 26 lbs. Because of their size, they are flat bottomed and blown in two pieces which are then fused together with molten glass making a small ridge.
 
NOTE: You may see 12" diameter floats referred to as huge. Now you can see the difference, and appreciate what huge is.
 
We have a large stock of floats and handblown glass jugs in all colors and sizes. Tell us what you would like to see.
 
The glass shows no discernable wear. The age and use is shown in the netting. There are no visible chips, cracks or scratches on it. The maker's Anchor Seal is in relief and is sharp and clearly defined. The indistinct swirl pattern and numerous small bubbles clearly reflects the art of Japanese hand-blown glass.
 
DIMENSIONS:
 
GREEN: Diameter 17", Circumference 53", Weight 26 lbs
 
ORANGE: Diameter 16", Circumfrance 50", Weight 21 lbs
 
If you follow what's for sale on the internet in the way of authentic floats, you know how rare a JAPANESE FISHING FLOAT OF THIS GIANT SIZE is so buy accordingly.  
 
International bidders welcome, but contact us first.  We have customers in Australia, Belgium, Canada, England, France, Germany, Holland, Ireland, Italy, Kuwait, Mexico, Saudi Arabia, Spain, and the Eastern Caribbean.  The list is growing weekly.
