Vintage Jiffy-Way egg scale in red painted metal, used for weighing and grading chicken eggs by size. The scale reads from small through extra large and was designed to measure egg weight both individually and by the dozen.
Jiffy-Way egg scales were produced in the 1940s–1950s and became common tools for farms, poultry houses, general stores, and home egg sellers. The design allowed eggs to be quickly sorted by size before sale or packing, making it a practical piece of mid-century agricultural equipment.
This example has the classic red body, printed size chart, and side balance arm with egg cup.
