Apothecary Scales by W A Webb Ltd
These are a fine pair of apothecary scales, manufactured by W A Webb Ltd of London. Housed within their original mahogany box, these scales are a testament to Victorian-era precision and craftsmanship. The scales feature delicate balance arms and pans, designed for accurate weighing of ingredients, and the box itself provides a secure and protective storage solution.
Condition and Collectability
The scales present as a well-preserved example of their type, showing signs consistent with age and use. While the functionality is not assessed, these scales would be of interest to collectors of scientific instruments, antique medical equipment, or those with an appreciation for historical measuring devices. The original mahogany box adds to the appeal and collectability of this piece.
