Executive Compass

Seemingly destined for desk bound travelers given the luxurious wood box. Yet such compasses were originally essential instruments used on small fishing dories and lifeboats. Our daily language has borrowed a multitude of nautical expressions,
one of which is: “set course for”. That’s what a compass does. Truly a wonderful and thoughtful gift for the man who has everything.
Distressed and French finished wood box, brass compass with a precision dry compass card showing which course to sail.    

Dimensions: 3.5 x 3.5 x 1.7 in.
