Five Vintage Frosted
Alaska BeachCombed
Glass Fishing
Floats
Here is a set of five vintage
authentic beachcombed oriental glass fishing floats that are approximately 3.25
inches in diameter.
All are completely frosted.
The floats are all a little different color.
These floats are old and have really taken a
beating in the surf, sandy beach and wind. If you could see where I beachcombed
some of these you'd see it's a wonder that they survived at all in the rocks and
gravel.
According to Amos Wood's book these frosted glass
floats occur approximately 1 in 300.
The "frosting" comes from tumbling around in the
surf and then being sandblasted by winds in excess of 100 mph as they lay on the
beaches.
I don't know how long it takes for the floats to
get completely frosted but it's awhile.
Priority mail shipping and
handling is $9.80 in the USA.
