EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a piece of history from the 1930s - a Copper plate scale used for weighing commodities in shops and markets. The Roberval scale features copper plates and an enamelled steel base, with a weight system made of copper and cast iron. This particular scale was part of the catalog of the Manufacture des Armes et Cycles de Saint-Etienne (St Etienne - Manufrance) in 1931.
The intricate details of this engraving showcase the craftsmanship and functionality of this tool, which was essential for merchants during that time period. The forced 10 kilos capacity made it ideal for accurately measuring goods for sale.
The vibrant colors add to the visual appeal of this historical artifact, highlighting its importance as a work tool in early twentieth-century France. The balance scales are not only practical but also aesthetically pleasing, making them a versatile addition to any toolkit.
Overall, this print by © Patrice Cartier is a beautiful representation of an important object from the past, reminding us of the ingenuity and precision that went into everyday tools used for trade and commerce in Europe during the mid-20th century.
