About the Item
This 1900s French cast iron scale is a classic example of early 20th-century craftsmanship, blending industrial utility with sculptural appeal. Composed of heavy cast iron, the scale features a wide, shallow dish for weighing on one side and a set of tiered weights on the other, balanced atop a dual-column base with elegant curves and subtle detailing. The surface bears the patina of age, including traces of wear and oxidization that enhance its vintage character. Originally used in markets or general stores, this piece now serves beautifully as a decorative object—ideal for kitchens, shelving displays, or as a nostalgic nod to artisanal trade.
