These Nätsänken (net sinkers) or weights for fishing nets are held at Jamtli, the regional museum of Jämtland and Härjedalen in Östersund, Sweden. They are constructed of wood bent into a circle and a birch bark pocket across the centre to hold a stone for weight. A stone can be seen in the weight on the right.
