Salter No. 6 Brass Pocket Balance — 25lb, 9.5cm, Good Condition

A genuine vintage Salter No. 6 brass spring balance. Salter is one of the great names in English weighing instruments — Richard Salter began making the first spring balance scales in England in the late 1760s, coining the term "pocket steelyards" for these portable scales. The company, later George Salter & Co. of West Bromwich, became one of Britain's most enduring scale and weighing-instrument makers.
