English 19th Century Postal Scale in Pietre Dure and Brass by S. Mordan, London
About the Item
English 19th Century Mordan postal scale in brass on pietre dure base. The black marble base is inlaid with blue stone forget-me-nots and white stone stephanotis with shaded leaves in green stones. I am sorry to say I am not expert in types of stones, but a gemologist could give further insights. S. Mordan & Co. was one of the finest scale makers in London in the 19th Century. This scale is signed: S. Mordan & Co. London. There are 5 weights: 4 oz, 2oz, l oz, 1/2 oz and an additional 1/2 oz topper weight; the weights are unsigned, circa 1870.
