Description

DeepL Translate

Beijing, circa 1940
Once used by employees of a railway company, these old abacuses are from Beijing and include a metal plaque giving details of the company. The columns of beads were used to represent multiples of ten, with the right hand columns denoting decimals. Today they make unusual desk ornaments. Note that sizes and styles can vary slightly.
