This piece features a heavy-duty iron cylinder body with a stunning, contrasting brass faceplate. The "MADE IN U.S.A." stamp is clearly visible, certifying its heritage. Originally designed for weighing anything from produce to fish, today it serves as a striking decorative object perfect for a farmhouse kitchen, a rustic workshop, or a curated gallery wall. Key Features: Capacity: Weighs up to 50 lbs (graduated in 1 lb increments). Construction: Robust iron/steel casing with a bright brass indicator plate. Origin: Clearly stamped "MADE IN U.S.A." Hardware: Features a heavy-duty top ring for suspension and a solid iron bottom hook. Condition: This scale is in very good antique condition with a desirable age-earned patina.
