A Collection of Six Antique and Vintage Boxes with Brass and Silver-Toned Scale Weights and Assorted Instruments
Description
A collection of six antique and vintage boxes, primarily constructed from various woods including light brown, medium brown, and reddish-brown, alongside one black-finished box likely wood or metal. Five boxes are open, revealing their contents, which include multiple sets of brass and silver-toned balance weights of varying sizes, some with small knobs, suggesting their use with precision scales or assays. One light-colored wooden box features precisely cut circular, felt-lined depressions for organized weight storage. Other boxes contain an assortment of related objects such as brass balance pans, small metal tools or instruments, a coiled blue cord, a silver-toned thimble-like object, and miscellaneous small components. A small white label with mostly illegible text is affixed to the inside lid of the uppermost left wooden box.
