A charming late Victorian compass pendant dating to 1889. The glass is cut in the shape of a shield and mounted in sterling silver, giving the piece a distinctive and elegant design. The compass needle shows movement, though it is not perfectly accurate, typical for antique examples. In lovely condition with only light surface wear to the glass, this pendant makes a unique addition to any antique jewellery collection.
