A relic of ancient commerce, this hanging scale evokes the bustle of a village market day. Hand-crafted from humble materials, it features a central wooden peg that suspends two shallow pans made of leather. Originally used to weigh dry goods like grain or spices against a counterweight, today it serves as a purely decorative object. The piece has lost its functional mechanism, leaving behind a sculpture of balance and rustic simplicity. The textures—frayed rope, smooth wood, and weathered leather—tell a story of decades of daily use.
