Antique Postage Scale Balance Vintage CONCAV DUOGRAD – 1920s/1930s – Perfectly Functioning. Height 22 cm, base diameter 9.5 cm, weight 350 g. Splendid and rare antique pendulum postal weighing scale, model CONCAV DUOGRAD, produced in Germany in the first half of the 20th century (estimated period 1920s/1930s). On the dial the original mark with the famous inscription D.R.G.M. (Deutsches Reichs-Gebrauchs-Muster) is clearly visible, certifying its historical authenticity and the patent of the era. Mechanical Operation: Perfect. The pendulum mechanism is smooth, with no jams, and weighing is precise and accurate. When unloaded the needle tara correctly at zero on both scales (photos taken with a 20 g weight to test correct operation). Duograd System (Double Scale): Equipped with the characteristic two graduated scales in grams. Excluding the movable counterweight, it measures light correspondence (up to 50 g); inserting the counterweight automatically taraes the lower scale for heavier packages (up to 250 g). Upper Plate: Intact, stable and without dents. Preserves its original curved recessed shape designed specifically to hold letters or rolls without them slipping. Aesthetics: The white enamel dial is in excellent condition, perfectly clear and legible. The metal frame and the round base show a beautiful, genuine patina of time, highly sought after by collectors, with some superficial oxidation marks that attest to its authenticity without compromising its aesthetics (carefully inspect the photos). A piece of modern art and antique office furniture ideal both as a distinctive furnishing element (industrial, vintage, or retro style) and for discerning collectors seeking an object that is not only beautiful but also fully operational. The photos are an integral part of the description; shipping will be fast and insured for the full value. We do not ship outside Europe. At the end of the auction please check the messaging center where you will receive photos of the packaging and instructions for receipt.
