Vintage & Antique Compasses

Since the first compass was used by the military in the Song Dynasty China, it’s continued to be a common navigational tool. Today, some of the oldest compasses manufactured have a high value and are favored collectibles for their beautiful construction and design. Each compass varies with its design and included features, whether you want to own a compass attached to a keychain or a product that includes a protective cover. The high-quality materials used like brass and nickel or silver allow many of them to hold up well with frequent use. They make great gifts for loved ones, especially those who love exploration and adventure, or if you want to add to your own collection.
