Rare Deformed Hand-Blown Glass Float 4.3"
from Hokkaido Fisherman

Item Description
Thank you for visiting our site.
This is a very rare vintage Japanese hand-blown glass fishing float, directly sourced from a retired fisherman in Hokkaido. Unlike standard floats, it features an irregular cylindrical shape and a distinctive texture created through traditional glass-blowing methods, giving it a truly one-of-a-kind presence.
The glass has a beautiful light greenish color with charming bubbles and ripples throughout. These are not flaws but proof of authentic craftsmanship from a piece that was actually used in fishing. Floats with such deformations are rarely found on the market and are highly valued by collectors.
Approximate Size

Length: 11cm (4.3 in)

Diameter: 6 cm (2.38 in)

Condition
As this is a vintage item that was genuinely used at sea, signs of wear such as scuffs, scratches, and age-related marks are present. There are no cracks, and the float remains structurally solid. Please review the photos carefully to appreciate its patina and uniquely irregular shape.

Summary
A very rare float shipped directly from Hokkaido. Perfect for serious collectors of Japanese fishing floats or as nautical coastal décor. It will be carefully packaged and shipped with great care from Japan.
