砝码 (3) 古董 - 意大利 - 1750-1800年

由 wrought 铁锻件制成的三件套古秤砝码 – 18/19 世纪 – 1766 年及约1800 年标注

exceptional set consisting of three antique iron-forged balance weights, representative of the traditional metrology used in commerce before the adoption of the metric system. The pieces feature different construction typologies — cylindrical, cubic, and globular — evidencing the evolution of manufacturing standards between the XVIII and XIX centuries.

特色：

- Cylindrical weight, engraved with the date 1766 and a verification mark, testifying to its use in official weighing systems.
- Globular weight, of elegant execution, preserves the original hook marked with the inscription “PORTALY FILHO” (or similar designation, due to wear of the engraving), constituting an element of great historical interest and potentially identifying the manufacturer.
- Cubic weight bears verification and manufacturing marks compatible with XIX-century exemplars.

All pieces retain an ancient patina, natural signs of use and aging, with no evident restorations, preserving authenticity and original character.

Pieces of high interest for collectors of scientific instruments, metrology, industrial antiques, trade archaeology, and Lusophone heritage.

Features:

* Material: wrought/ cast iron.
* Era: XVIII century and early XIX century.
* Engraved date: 1766.
* Visible maker and verification marks.
* Condition compatible with age.

Rare set on the market, difficult to assemble with this chronology and diversity of models, constituting an excellent investment and appreciation opportunity for discerning collectors.
