Hanging Floats
Oregon Float® blown glass floats:
The Oregon Float® brand of hand-blown glass floats is created exclusively at Ocean Beaches Glassblowing & Gallery in Seal Rock, OR, and includes each of the styles of blown glass floats described below. The Oregon Float® label assures that you will be purchasing a locally hand-made piece of glass art, since it is quite common to find cheap blown glass items from overseas at even the most reputable of art galleries.
Our Hanging Floats are a variation from the original fishing floats. Rather than just sealing the float with a plug of glass, we stretch it out to loop it into a hook from which the Float can hang. These are a great option if you're short on horizontal display space, or would rather have a Float in the window.
The Hanging Floats are available in diameters from 3.5" (Ornaments) to 10".
All floats presented here are hand-blown by glass artist Bob Meyer of Seal Rock, OR
