キッチンスケール - Bronze, Copper

antique European brass and copper hanging scale, likely dating from the early 1900s.
The mechanism features a balance beam with a sliding counterweight and a chain-suspended bowl, typically designed for kitchen or mercantile use.
The copper bowl shows significant green patina, indicating oxidation over time, which is common for these vintage decorative pieces

The engraved text "M 1500 g" indicates the scale has a maximum weighing capacity of 1500 grams.

The stamped "crossed-arrows mark” directly underneath the weight capacity is an official factory maker's mark, commonly found on vintage weights, locks, and metalware produced in Central Europe (such as Germany or Austria) during the late 19th or early 20th century.
The stylized, cursive formatting of the "g" is a typical engraving font from the circa 1890–1920
