The romantic cabins on sailing ships of the early 1900s were pretty cramped. Engineers were pushed to come up with efficient hardware. Our 19th century four pronged coat hooks are both decorative and very practical. Fitting in tight corners, they fold away when not in use. .8LB. L: 6.6”, W: 5.4”

Classic Brunton Surveying Compass

CHBW663 Brunton Compass

D.W. Brunton was a mining engineer in Colorado in 1894, when he took out the patent for his versatile new boxed altazimuth dry compass. Within four years he was able to claim that it was “in use in every country from Australia to Alaska.” The Brunton Compass enabled surveys to map out new lands and chart coastlines. It was used as a plumb, hand-level, clinometer, sighting compass, and prismatic compass, as well as for obtaining horizontal and vertical angles for preliminary surface surveying. Our replica is a remarkable instrument and tribute to a great engineer. The solid polished brass casing opens to reveal a folding sight, spirit levels, and measuring gauges. Inside the lid is a sighting mirror. Supplied in a handmade wooden, latched box. 1.5LB. L: 3.5”, W: 3”, H: 1.5”
