Description from the seller
Jakob Maul's Bilateral Balance. A bilateral balance consists of two inclined balances mounted in a mirror image. The balance has two scales, one a bit higher from 0 g to 350 g and a lower one that is considerably more precise from 0 to 100 g. Each scale is hung from a part of the balance, with the weight-reading pointer on the opposite part of the balance. Each part of the balance has a weight that is displaced outward during use. The weights visible in the photo were used to demonstrate normal operation but are not for sale. The balance bears a punch/stamp with the company name that distinguishes it from the many commercial imitations. There are small, normal signs of aging that attest to its age and enhance its charm. Ideal for furnishing vintage or retro-style homes or to add character to public spaces. WE DO NOT SHIP OUTSIDE THE EUROPEAN UNION. For the Islands, we reserve the right to charge a surcharge for shipping costs possibly increased by the carriers.
