About the Item

This 19th Century French iron and marble scale features a charming blend of utilitarian form and refined materiality. The cast-iron mechanism retains its original dark patina, contrasted by a pale painted base that introduces a softer, unexpectedly elegant note. Two white marble platforms rest above, their smooth surfaces and subtle natural veining adding a sense of balance and visual clarity to the composition. The central arm and decorative finial highlight the precision and craftsmanship typical of French workshop pieces from the period. With its sculptural profile and authentic aged character, this scale is an ideal accent for kitchens, pantries, or curated shelves, offering a timeless connection to 19th-century French domestic life.
