Description: These antique French platform scales are a fascinating piece of history. They are crafted from oak, cast iron, and brass and have a sturdy yet elegant design. Made in France, they once stood in a bustling station where travellers weighed their luggage before setting off on grand journeys by train. Imagine the stories they could tell, the excitement of departures, and the anticipation of arrivals.
Still in working order, these scales have found a new purpose and are ideally suited for use as bathroom scales. However, their charm and character extend far beyond practicality. Whether placed in a hallway, living space, or study, they are a striking conversation piece, blending history with functionality and uniqueness.
