The scale is no longer operational, but still makes an mighty impact on a space like a kitchen counter. The scale is made of brass, with two copper weigh pans. Shaped arms support and balance the hanging pans, attached by linked brass strands. As seen in the detailed photos, each copper pan has been stamped numerous times with a seal, bearing a year, surrounded by Greek letters. The English crown can also be seen stamped into the copper. These dates signify when the scale was last calibrated, likely for a mercantile or other shop. The columnar shaft sits atop a stacked brass pedestal mounted on a square of grey marble. The entire scale is lifted by brass ball feet. Note the scale includes the six various weights pictured. Please view the detailed images to see more. See less
