AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Fascinating vintage nautical compass of French origin, originally intended for use on vessels.
It features a distinctive black body with a large transparent dome and a highly legible dial, with 360-degree graduation, cardinal points, and the marking “France”. The tilting metal support allows the compass to maintain its orientation as the vessel tilts.
An object with a strong maritime and technical character, today particularly decorative in industrial, nautical, vintage settings or in a study.
The item shows normal signs and traces of wear consistent with its age and use. Please study the photographs carefully, which are an integral part of the description.
