Sold Out

Charming kite shaped antique Victorian gold filled compass fob. The coordinates were skillfully hand painted with a mustard colored backdrop creating a rim around the compass arrows. The frame features delicate etching at each of the cardinal directions.

Unfortunately the compass does not work, and the glass is cracked on one side, but the overall aesthetic of the fob is very nice :-). It does have some slight tarnish and discoloration commensurate with its age. The piece measures approx. 1-1/8" x 1" with a loop on the top so that it may be worn on a chain.

Circa 1800s.
