Miniature Cast Iron Balance Scale – Reproduction

This is a miniature cast iron balance scale reproduction, made in the style of early postal and apothecary weighing scales. It is a decorative piece, not an antique and not a calibrated measuring instrument.

The scale features a charming two-arm balance design, a round weighing pan on one side, a star-shaped counterbalance support on the other, and a hand-painted floral motif along the base. It has a deliberately aged look that gives it vintage character, making it perfect for display.

Ideal for dollhouse scenes, curio cabinets, shadow boxes, or industrial-style decor vignettes.
