Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Postal scales became essential desk items following the introduction of the Uniform Penny Post in the United Kingdom in 1840, which established postage rates based on weight rather than distance.

These instruments were traditionally crafted from solid brass components mounted upon bases made of mahogany, walnut, or cast iron, accompanied by calibrated brass weights.

Authentic pieces by S. Mordan & Co. typically display stamped maker marks on the balance arm or base plate, feature precise brass joinery, and possess accurate weight markings.

Postal scales act as historical decorative accents on modern office desks, library bookshelves, console tables, or study credenzas.

Dust the surfaces gently using a dry, soft cloth, avoiding aggressive chemical cleaners that destroy natural age patina, and apply microcrystalline wax to preserve the wood and brass finishes.
