Five Early Rare Victorian Porcelain Scale Weights

Day and Millward  1860 - 1890

A lovely early run of ceramic and lead grocer / merchant scale weights.  2oz, 8oz,1lb, 2lbs and 4lbs.  Original lead liners that include the various stamps impresses into the lead from inspectors.  Ceramic scale weights were forbidden use in the early 20th century because chips and shaved lead produced incorrect weights.

A lovely set in very good condition.
