About the Item

Immerse yourself in the elegance and charm of yesteryear with this exquisite antique brass scale, a true testament to craftsmanship and beauty. This remarkable piece stands proudly on a stunning Portofino marble base, its presence in any room undeniable. The scale's design is elevated by a fluted brass stem that catches the light and the eye, hinting at the intricate detail and care put into its creation. The tiered marble base, a masterpiece in itself, is delicately perched upon small, intricate brass feet, adding a touch of sophistication and stability. While this piece boasts of a time when quality and artistry were paramount, it does bear a tiny chip on the marble base — a minor blemish that barely whispers against the overall majesty of the scale. This slight imperfection does not detract from its beauty but rather adds to the scale's story and authenticity as an antique. Perfect for collectors, decorators, or anyone with an appreciation for fine, historical objects, this brass scale with its Portofino marble base is a rare find that promises to bring a touch of elegance and history to any setting.
