      I don't know but this one says it's for a car radiator? Not sure if that's right you'll have to do a little more research.

      What a cool piece ! I love the dolphins :-)
    8. RichmondLori RichmondLori, 4 years ago
      I think the dolphins could be serpents. And the maker of this brass piece could be Mago - Portuguese.

      Correction this is the right search term:

      "Solid Brass Maco Braga 19th Century Serpentine Balance Scale"

      These scales where produced between 1880 - 1900 CA 1890 Portugal. Ca. 1890
