Ship's compass - Brass, Glass, Wood - Observator

Ship's compass - Brass, Glass, Wood - Observator

An antique liquid-filled compass hanging in a Cardan ring. The compass has a diameter of 13.3 cm. Made by the well-known Dutch manufacturer Observator. The compass is dry but does work. The compass hangs in an old wooden chest. Many photos have been added so that the condition of the compass and chest can be assessed well. Photos are part of the description. The compass will be sent very well packed, insured and by registered mail with a track and trace code. See also my other listings and potentially save on shipping costs. Will not be shipped to the United States.
