AVERY Scales with Weights. 2lb to 1/2Oz
Description:
Here is a great Set of Avery Balance Scales together with Solid Bras Weights. These Weights range from 2lb to an half of an ounce. These would have been seen in Tobacconist Shops when loose Tobacco was sold in the Victorian days up to the 1940’s when I first saw one! This was for those who 'Rolled their own' and Pipe Tobacco. These are mounted on a Mahogany Base which measures 52cm in length and 26cm in width. The Large Pan has a diameter of 22cm and the smaller (the weight pan) 15cm diameter. This stems from around c1825/35 W & T Avery started in Birmingham in 1818. These were made when George IV was on the Throne. FREE DELIVERY IN THE UK! PRICE REDUCTION to £200!

In 40 years of dealing in Antiques, I have never charged for Wrapping & Packing items for Shipment---now unfortunately because of rising costs of materials in which to wrap and pack such securely so your item arrives intact--I am having to charge the following costs--ITEMS FOR DELIVERY IN THE UK--£15--ITEMS FOR OVERSEAS DELIVERY £25. These Charges are reasonable considering wrapping and packing an item can take between (according to the item size) anywhere from 20 minutes to over 2 hours! Thanks for your understanding.
