Brass precision balance with weights – 1900s – Original case

Elegant antique brass precision balance, dating from the 1900s, accompanied by its original weights and presented in its black velvet-lined case.

Probably used in a laboratory, pharmacy, or for weighing precious metals, this balance consists of two pans suspended by chains, a crossbar, a support rod, as well as a complete set of calibrated weights, neatly stored in their dedicated compartments.

A fine scientific and decorative object, a testament to the craftsmanship of the era. Good overall condition, with some signs of wear consistent with its age.
