Floats most commonly are seen in "coke bottle" green or blue green variations, but once in a while, one gets lucky with
their find and a unique or hard to find color turns up...cobalt, cranberry, purple, olive, yellow, and more. Floats
can be stained from time at sea, swirled with different colors of glass, sun turned, or just made from a brillant color.

| Cranberry Float with Nail Embedded |
There are 3 large purple floats in my collection. One toward the lighter side, and two deep purple. What's
great about these floats is the different seals on them. The one pictured is the lightest - along with one of the dark
purples, it has a unique seal button that is very similar to my pear or lightbulb float. Might be a different time period,
might be a different glass company.
