Introduction
These charming miniature balance scales are a delightful piece of folk art or a unique desk display item. Constructed with repurposed half pennies forming the pans, suspended by delicate chains from a slender brass rod, they evoke a sense of nostalgia and ingenuity. The base is a simple, circular disc, providing stability to the whimsical construction.
Condition
The scales exhibit signs of age and handling, consistent with a vintage item. While the scales are structurally intact, the chains may show slight wear. These scales would appeal to collectors of novelty items, folk art enthusiasts, or those seeking a unique conversation piece for their home or office.
