A lovely set of vintage brass balance scales made as a decorative display piece rather than a functional measuring instrument. The design features a cast brass column with a sculpted geometric finial, a textured crossbar and two shallow brass bowls suspended from aged chains. The casting marks and soft detailing give them a handmade, characterful feel.
The brass has developed a warm patina with natural surface marks from age, giving them an appealing lived-in look. They display beautifully on a desk, bookshelf or study and work well styled alongside vintage books, curiosities or legal-themed décor. A charming statement piece that adds interest and personality wherever it’s placed.
