Antique Brass Bell Weight — F.J. Arnald & Son, Bristol

$135.00

A handsome 19th-century brass shop weight made by F.J. Arnald & Son of Bristol, renowned for their precision weights and measures during the Victorian era. Crafted from solid brass in the classic bell form, it would have been used on a merchant’s balance scale for weighing goods like tea, sugar, or apothecary supplies.

The open handle is deeply stamped with the maker’s name, and its golden surface bears the warm patina of time — subtle wear that tells its story of honest daily use. Today, it makes a striking decorative accent on a shelf or desk, a beautiful nod to the craftsmanship of the industrial age.

Circa: 1860–1890

Origin: Bristol, England

Material: Solid brass

Dimensions: 4.5" H x 2.5" D
