A GERMAN COMBINATION COMPASS WITH SUNDIAL, 18TH C.
An 18th century German combination compass and sundial, complete with its original box. The inside of the cloth and leather box is affixed with a medallion listing various cities along with their latitudes. The compass itself is made up of many different parts, including a free-floating needle encased within glass, around which are the cardinal directions written in abbreviated Latin. The frame is of gilt brass, ornately carved with brick and wave motifs. There are three folding elements atop the rest of the compass, including an arm with degree measurements, a sundial with a rotating needle bar, and a plum bob.
Germany - 18th Century
3 x 3 in., (7.6 cm.)
Condition: Compass in very good condition with only minor oxidation in some places. All parts function and move well. Box is worn on the outside but still structurally sound. The leather of hinge has deteriorated but still holds well.
