HobbyGaia - Collections - Vintage Scale Santo Stefano - Suprema, Made in Italy (Varese), fifties. It has four measuring scales, selectable with a small handle, and visible in a small window on top: the first of 0 grams, as the display indicates weighs up to 500gr. The total value to weigh is always the value indicated in the window plus the value indicated by the pointer in the quadrant. Its construction is so robust, that although small, and designed to weigh only two kilograms, (1500gr + 500gr), it itself weighs more than thirteen kilograms !!!. Being a trade balance, it has two dials, one facing the seller and the other facing the customer. They are visible on the plate, several marks of punctures, made over the years, that attested to their precision. It has also incorporated a spherical level, to control its horizontal position. Its design, based on curved lines makes it very beautiful, elegant and attractive, so if it has been dethroned in the grocery store, no doubt will be queen in  any kitchen!!!
