Wonderful vintage relic of old sea days! Ship's magnetic compass mounted in a wooden case. The compass face floats in water, while the body is mounted in the box to allow it to swivel to level as the ocean waves toss the ship around. The compass box measures 14" x 14" x 7.5" deep. The compass face is 10" in diameter. Compass is brass with black paint. The paint is chipping off the body of the compass revealing the brass. Compass was made by Kelvin & Hughes of Great Britain.
