Description

These brass weighing scales recreate the traditional balance, with two shallow round pans hanging on fine chains from a beam that pivots on a slender central post. The metal has a warm, polished gold-tone shine, and the beam carries a small stamped 10 at its centre, just the sort of detail you find on an old grocer's scale. The round brown base holds a shaped brass plate with fitted holes for small cylindrical weights, each marked with its value in grams, so they sit neatly in a row when they are not in the pans. The scales stand 22.5cm tall, 21cm wide and 10cm deep, a size that suits a desk or shelf without crowding it.

We like them on a writing desk or in a study, where the beam and pans catch the light from a lamp, and they sit just as happily on a bookshelf, a mantelpiece or a hallway console. Set a weight or two in the pans and watch the beam tip, or use the pans to hold rings, cufflinks or paper clips at the end of the day. At only 10cm deep, they fit a narrow shelf or an indoor windowsill. They make a characterful gift for anyone who enjoys vintage desk pieces, old apothecary shops or a touch of brass about the home.

The scales are brass, with the weights finished to match and the brown base giving the piece a steady footing and a warm contrast. The weights lift out of their holes, so you can arrange them as you please. To keep the shine, dust with a soft dry cloth and buff gently, avoid abrasive cleaners and keep the scales away from damp. Wrapped with a card, they make a thoughtful present for someone setting up a study, or for anyone who loves an old-fashioned object with moving parts on show.
