About the Item

This 19th Century French iron and marble scale is a striking example of utilitarian craftsmanship elevated by elegant materials and balanced proportions. The dark, time-worn iron base features subtle molded edges and retains its original patina, offering a rich contrast to the twin white marble platforms above. Each marble slab is smoothly finished, providing a refined surface that highlights the precision and symmetry of the scale’s design. The central support and decorative iron detailing underscore its mechanical sophistication while preserving its historical character. Ideal as a sculptural accent in kitchens, consoles, or curated shelving, this piece brings an authentic touch of French industrial heritage with a graceful, enduring presence.
