Cardan Brass Compass

Cardan Brass Compass

This stunning brass compass in a wooden case is a reproduction of one used in the 17th century. The Cardan system means that the plate moves freely when the waves roll, which allows the instrument to remain horizontal when the ship is inclining.

There are wonderful decorations in the Renaissance style at the top. This unique combination of wood and brass along with great attention to detail will give your interior a unique character or can make this product a great gift for someone who loves magical journeys.
