North Compass

A Handmade Compass With Real Character

The North Compass is another lovely piece from our handmade compass range. Made entirely from brass, it has that classic vintage nautical look, the kind of thing that brings to mind old maps and courses plotted long before GPS. Smaller and more pocket friendly than our Australian Penny Compass, it still has a good weight in the hand and the same sense of quality craftsmanship.

Why You'll Love It

• Genuinely handmade  Individually made from brass, giving it real character.
• A classic look  Vintage nautical styling that never really goes out of fashion.
• Good in the hand  A solid, satisfying weight that feels like quality.
• Compact size  Small and pocket friendly, at 6 x 5.5 x 1cm.
• A gift with meaning  The kind of thoughtful, slightly unexpected gift that gets noticed.
• Built to last  Brass ages well, so it only gets more characterful over time.
