About this seller
Private sellerProduct description
This Sestrel marine compass, manufactured by Henry Browne & Son, is an authentic nautical instrument with a rich history. The design is characterized by a robust construction and a clear, convex glass dome that protects the detailed dial.
The compass is crafted from solid brass, ensuring durability and a classic appearance. The black dial features clear white markings for accurate navigation. The instrument is mounted in a sturdy bracket, making it easy to attach. The original nameplate with serial number No. 12050/D/V confirms its origin from the Station Works in Barking, Essex, England.
Over the years, the brass has developed a beautiful, natural patina that contributes to the authentic character of the piece. The glass dome is intact and the dial is clearly legible, indicating careful preservation.
This marine compass is a striking decorative object for maritime history enthusiasts. It looks excellent in a classic or industrial interior, for example on a desk, in a bookcase, or as part of a collection of nautical instruments.
