Museum Archive: Vintage Lurex Spinner France, 1/4oz brass spinning lure #23430

Brass components define the visual character of this French-made spinner, cataloged under product code 23430. Weighing 1/4 oz (7 g) and measuring 4" (10 cm) in total length, the lure features a teardrop-shaped blade clearly stamped with "LUREX FRANCE." The body is constructed from a series of six graduated brass beads threaded onto the wire shaft, providing a solid core for casting. Unlike many modern spinners, this specimen utilizes a vintage double hook attached to the rear loop. Rated at a 4/5 for condition, the brass color shows the character of an authentic vintage piece while the structural integrity of the wire and clevis remains sound. The graduated beads serve as a weight-forward design that balances the blade's rotation around the central axis.
