VERY RARE VINTAGE PIECE I FOUND AT THE ANTIQUE STORE IN LISBON PORTUGAL. THIS PIECE IS HEAVY AND VERY SOLID MADE , PICTURE ON THE SCALE IS INCLUDED. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT METAL ITS MADE FROM, POSSIBLY BRASS WITH SILVER OVERLAY ( JUST A GUESS) OR A DIFFERENT METAL, HOWEVER TRULY NICE WEIGHTY SOLID PIECE! ALL PICTURES ARE PART OF DESCRIPTION. UNIQUE PIECE, MOST DEFINITELY A COLLECTORS ITEM!!!
