Vintage Herter's Glass Eye Spoon, 2/5oz nickel/red eyes fishing spoon #23555

Casting a bright reflection, the polished nickel finish on this metal blank is punctuated by two prominent faceted red glass beads that serve as the lure's eyes. Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) and weighing 2/5 oz (11 g), this Japanese-made spoon reflects the specialized hardware choices often found in mid-century Herter's catalogs. The glass beads are securely wired through the spoon's body, providing a three-dimensional visual element that adds texture to the profile. A sturdy treble hook is attached at the rear via a split ring, paired with a matching split ring at the nose for secure line attachment when casting or trolling. Identified by product code 23555, the specimen retains a high-gloss luster across its entire surface. The metal and components are extremely well-preserved, resulting in a condition rating of 5/5.
