Rotted net

My last find was rotted and very, very dusty. We had to find facemask or whatever the name is for those mask seen on picture.
I don't know what kind of dust but it felt like smoking 30 sigarettes.
Those floats and net was found in the Haugesund - Stavanger (Finnøy) area and are markt with F2, dotted F, M, dotted Q or something similar and two unmarked glass floats.
Fishing net is a Herring net and I guess it is from approx year 1930 - 1950 made from hemp and old wool rope.
Those netted floats Are beautiful, but the whole fishing net is rotted (part of it)and old junk.
