Large Antique French Neoclassical Brass Scale, by Berenger & Co, Lyon
France, Circa 1870
A stunning Large Antique French Neoclassical Brass Scale, crafted by the renowned Berenger & Co of Lyon during the mid to late 19th Century. This remarkable brass shop keepers, assay or pharmacist scale is not just an early scientific tool but a masterwork of both functionality and aesthetics.
Standing at an impressive 33.5 inches in height and measuring 34 inches in width, this neoclassical scale is a captivating square sculpture. It boasts meticulous craftsmanship, featuring a dense and heavy brass casting. The scale is characterized by a pivoted horizontal lever with arms of equal length, known as the beam. Suspended from each arm are intricately designed weighing pans, both inscribed with precision markings.
This antique scale exudes timeless elegance and embodies the neoclassical design principles of symmetry and balance. It serves as a testament to the craftsmanship of Berenger & Co and would make a remarkable addition to any collection or decor, reflecting both historical significance and artistic beauty.
