50579-Charming French antique brass balance scale

50579-Charming French antique brass balance scale This is a small vintage brass balance scale from France (excluding the hanging chains), featuring refined construction and an elegant design that exudes a strong sense of vintage charm and decorative value. The round pans are suspended by chains on both sides, showing subtle signs of age that enhance its antique appeal. The base and central column are made of brass, with a solid and detailed build. It comes with seven original metal weights, adding completeness and collectible value. Notably, the two pans are positioned at slightly different heights while the crossbeam remains balanced—this is a common feature in early handmade scales. Since it was difficult to achieve perfectly equal pan weights, craftsmen would fine-tune the chain lengths to achieve balance, demonstrating the traditional craftsmanship and ingenuity of adjusting according to material characteristics. Whether placed in a study, living room, or office, it adds a touch of classical elegance and symbolizes fairness and justice. It is a unique find for collectors and antique enthusiasts, ideal as a photography prop, display piece, or a focal element in a vintage-themed space. 數量內容content ：一個天平含7個完整砝碼(10gx1;5gx2;2gx2;1gx2)A balance contains 7 complete weights. 尺寸size：長L16x寬W8X 高H24cm 重量weight ：417g 材質Material：黃銅（吊鍊為合金）Brass (chain is alloy) 年份Year：20世紀初early 20th century 產地 From：法國France 印標hallmark : 無N/A Reference code : W50804-2301 ⚠️請留意：盤面一高一低（老天平調校因素），不影響使用。古董物件無論顏色與表面皆有歷史使用痕跡，若有任何問題，歡迎請來訊詢問。 ⚠️親愛的來自國外的朋友們，全球運輸提供安全包裝。 歡迎隨時與我們詢問運費相關事宜。 ⚠️ Please note: Antique objects have historical wear&tear of use regardless of color and surface.
