Orange Terraillon scale from the 70s by Marco Zanuso

Tired of changing the batteries in your kitchen scale. This scale is made for you, it is mechanical, without battery so! In addition, with its great vintage look, you can let it proudly sit on the worktop! This scale of the brand terraillon, model 4000, created by the designer marco zanuso in the 70s, has become an icon of design, with its flashy orange color typical of that time, to the point that it is exhibited at the moma in new york. On some photos, the orange color seems lighter than in reality, the photo showing the color most faithfully is the one where we see the underside of the small tray in close-up. It is equipped with its two weighing bins and a wheel to adjust the tare for each bin. Its bins are easy to wash and store on the scale: we have not invented more practical since! It is in very good condition, very clean, I tested it, it works (weighed up to 4 kg), the bins do not have cracks, it only shows small signs of its age: small marks and scratches, mainly on the transparent tray and the wheel to make the tare is a little harder to turn than originally (i know because I have the same, in cream color, which I use almost every day, and mine turns a little easier). Row, it measures 18 cm by 12.5 cm by 12.5 cm in height.
