Originating from China and considered to be a magical tool to guide priests for Feng Shui, the compass has truly come full circle. Not only did it change the way mariners explore and conquer, but the compass is the one tool used not only by seamen, but also soldiers, fishermen and explorers. This ‘Collector’s’ compass was originally created for the scientific instrument collection of King George IV. Its elegant design features gimbal-rings, which serve to keep the compass bowl horizontal, regardless of how much the vessel is heeling over. Features This replica compass is from King George IV collection. The gimbal-rings give out an elegant shine, while the brass plating and hand-tooled crafting is just an impressive form of art. This was a fantastic invention back in the days, especially for maritime sailors; these days, it bestows a genuine sense of antiquity upon the Collectors' Compass. Hand-tooled in admiralty brass. Materials: Metal and glass Colour: Bronze Dimensions W 10.5 X D 14 X H 19.5 CM Dispatch Timing Normally dispatched within 3 business days Notes This item comes with 12-Months Manufacturer Warranty
