WW1 TRENCH ART COMPASS
Hand made from two 1916 English penny coins brazed or soldered to some coarsely threaded brass pipe
The resulting "pot" contains a compass manufactured by Houlliot in France in the late 1800s / early 1900s
This is a beautiful and tactile item, and not a modern reproduction, probably made by a regimental blacksmith
The compass is temperamental. Sometimes it works fine, other times it needs a shake or tapping on a table to get it to swing
PRICE INCLUDES POSTAGE WORLDWIDE - Buyers are responsible for any import taxes payable in countries outside of the European Community (including the United Kingdom), but I will do all I can to minimise such taxes.
PRICE EURO 580.00
