Vintage Salter No46 Household Scale

This is a vintage Salter No46 household scale, featuring a distinctive gong frame. The scale is constructed with a robust metal base and a circular weighing platform. The dial face displays measurements in pounds, and the scale’s design reflects the utilitarian aesthetic of early 20th-century kitchen equipment. The gong frame adds a unique visual element, likely intended to provide an audible indication when the desired weight was reached.

Condition and Collector Appeal

This scale shows signs of age and use, with some surface wear and patina consistent with its vintage. The mechanism may not be fully functional, and the scale is offered in its as-found condition. Despite this, it remains a desirable piece for collectors of kitchenalia, vintage advertising, or salter scales, and would make an interesting decorative item.
