Step back into the 1920s with this large brass hanging spring balance scale, guaranteed and built by C. Forschner out of New York. This hefty piece of engineering is a testament to early 20th-century craftsmanship, designed to weigh up to 100 pounds with precision. The brass faceplate reveals a delightful patina of age, while the iron hook and hardware exude industrial charm. The scale's markings remain legible, giving a solid nod to its functional roots. Perfect for collectors or anyone fascinated by historic tools with a story to tell!
