A Great Find

I love finding something different. Something not everyone can get their hands on. Something that makes customers type their passwords wrong because they are trying to get it faster than anyone else;)
Well, I found one...and here it is:

Take a looky at this amazing antique Industrial Balance Scale. Both scale dishes and the base are solid brass. The center pole is solid heavy copper. This is one serious scale. It weighs about 25 lbs. It has absolutely no markings anywhere, but is in amazing condition for its age. She looks pretty good for 150 years old, huh? I was told t the auction where I bought it that it is from a button factory. Where buttons were weighed by the pound. It is still perfectly balanced. 
I truly love it and am so happy for the time we can spend together before her "Forever Home" scoops her up and she is out of my life. 


Who knows. Maybe to another button factory or seamstress shoppe? I can only hope. She is available at French Bleu Vintage now. If you have any questions about this beauty, ask away.
