AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A brass Pharmacy balance with a set of 11 weights in a solid wood case (a 2-gram weight missing).
Dating the balance is difficult because this model appears in the late 1800s and early 1900s.
The marks stamped by the metric inspection authorities on the weights help identify the French origin and the fact that it was professional and not decorative.
Very beautiful and with the charm of the patina that cloaks the brass in a warm color of by-gone times. The elegance of the late-19th/early-20th-century decorations makes it a piece with strong decorative personality.
Still perfectly functional.
