The ingredients of the meals to be made in the palace were measured with a scale. Their weight was measured, and thereafter, the meals were made according to the recipe. This large size scale made in İzmir, which can be referred as the industrial type, is one of the examples used in big food companies and enabling the weighing of kilos of food.
It is a fixed model rather than a handheld one and has reached the present day in a very good condition. Being made in İzmir, it is a beautiful and genuine example.
