Brass Compass - H40
Nautical compasses were used in the 16th century. Their role during the Great Geographic Discoveries cannot be overestimated. They contributed to the development of navigation and cartography.
The present model is a combination of a compass and a sundial. Thanks to the gnomon at the compass dial, we are able to easily determine the solar time. To take a measurement, place the instrument on a flat surface, trying to avoid any magnetic interference that could affect the operation of the device. The gnomon will indicate the north direction, casting a shadow on the current solar time.
Made with attention to detail, the solar compass features rich Renaissance ornamentation. It will work well as a sophisticated gift for the traveler and vintage style lover.
The compass is packaged in an elegant gift box with a molded case.
