The scales are working. One face has more paint loss and natural ageing form use. The other face is more complete and in ‘better condition. Depends how rustic you like your vintage items and what look you love the most. Some of the chrome plating is pitting on the cradle under the bowl. Can not be seen with the bowl in situ. Very good condition given their age and years of commercial use. Pretty hard to find these.
Dimensions:-
88cm High (top of hook to bottom of cradle), face 31cm Wide at the widest point, 8cm Deep
Bowl dimensions: 41.5cm Long, 28cm Wide

£0FREE Shipping on this item. Far afield and rural areas will incur a charge.
These original mid Century weighing scales are exceptional, imposing and beautiful. They date from around 1950-60 and were produced by the Dutch manufacturers Berkel. Berkel were world renowned for their highest quality commercial scales and slicers. The General Electric Company (GEC) later merged Berkel (following a take over) with Avery to produce Avery Berkel in 1993.
These scales are completely original. The quality is evident in their size, design, weight and quality of commercial grade materials used. Solid stainless steel throughout they weigh around 20kgs+.
The scales are fully working and save for a few patches of enamel lost on one of the side plates they are as good a condition as it gets, for something that is 60-70 years old.
Outstanding! They would make such a statement piece in the right home. You certainly wouldn’t want to hide these away in a cupboard.
Try to find another set that comes anywhere close to these. The only other set we could find (dating from 1970) in a dull stainless steel finish and nowhere near as good condition are retailing at £695 GBP.
