Museum Archive: Vintage Moriyama, 1/16oz spinning lure #14164

Stamped clearly onto the silver-finished blade is the Moriyama brand name, signifying its origin from a respected era of Japanese tackle manufacturing. Weighing in at a delicate 1/16oz (2g) and measuring 1 1/2" (4cm) in length, this inline spinner is built on a sturdy wire frame suited for ultra-light gear. The blade utilizes a dimpled texture around its perimeter to catch light, while the center remains smooth and highly reflective. Below the blade, a bright orange bead provides a focal point against the stacked brass body, which consists of five distinct grooved rings. This specimen, listed under Product Code 14164, maintains an excellent 5/5 condition, showing the integrity of the original hardware and the sharp treble hook.
