Vintage H. Fereday & Sons Ltd. Column scale

Vintage H. Fereday & Sons Ltd. Column / “Lollipop” weighing Scale – 1967 A rare opportunity to own an original 1967 H. Fereday & Sons Ltd. column scale — an iconic “lollipop” style weighing machine with fantastic mid‑century character. These are increasingly hard to find in complete, working order, and this example retains all the key features collectors look for. Key Details - Manufactured in 1967 – genuine mid‑century industrial piece - Dual measurement: pounds (LB) and stones (STONE) - Capacity: up to 20 stone / 280 lbs - Dual‑sided glass dial – both panes intact - Original white enamel finish - Classic column/lollipop design – highly sought after for restoration, display, or shop décor Condition The scale is in very good vintage condition for its age. The enamel shows some marks and dirt consistent with age and use, but nothing that detracts from its structure or display value. See photos for full condition details. Why It’s Worth Restoring These Fereday column scales have become collectible décor pieces, often restored for: - Vintage shops and barbers - Boutique clothing stores - Film and theatre props - Home interiors with industrial or retro themes Fully restored examples often command significantly higher prices, making this a strong candidate for restoration or resale.
