Antique WWI French Army Brass Pocket Compass

Antique 1910s WWI French army brass pocket compass

This made in France and issued to French troops during the First World War. It has a solid brass case with a folding cover and a transit lock that holds the needle in place when the compass is closed.

Whether as a practical hiking companion, a unique pendant or a display piece, this compass is both functional and full of history.

After more than a century, the compass is in good working condition and still reliably points north. The brass case has developed a beautifully aged patina that adds to its character.
