A striking early 20th-century Fairbanks Springless industrial platform scale, manufactured in the United States and retaining its original dial face, patent plaque (1920–1926), and untouched industrial patina.
Fairbanks was one of America’s most iconic makers of commercial weighing equipment, and this “springless” model was engineered with a precision lever-and-balance mechanism rather than a coil spring—resulting in highly accurate readings for factories, warehouses, dairies, shipping houses, and industrial labs.
This piece offers pure sculptural presence: a wide cast-metal base, a beautifully aged face with its original typography, and a monumental circular dial that reads like industrial art.
