Product Description
Crafted in 1974, this premium vintage set features six solid brass circular metric weights, stamped with precise denominations ranging from 200 grams down to 5 grams. Each disc displays clear numerical values alongside Devanagari script markings ("ग्राम / g") and official verification hallmarks within raised outer rims. Historically, standardized metric weights of this design were utilized across India by jewelers, bullion merchants, and traditional traders to ensure exact measurement for commercial transactions following the national adoption of the metric system.
Benefits of solid brass construction include high resistance to corrosion, long-term mass stability, and a rich golden patina developed over decades of age. Today, this 384-gram collectible set carries exceptional historical appeal. Display it alongside vintage balance scales on a study desk, arrange it within a glass display shadowbox, or present it as a unique addition to an antique collection of trade and measurement artifacts.
