[Jewelry] [Pendant]. Retro 13K Gold Compass Pendant with Rope-Twist Border.

For the traveler who likes to know which way is north without reaching for a phone. A working compass is set in a substantial gold pendant, its dial marked with the cardinal and intercardinal points (N, E, S, W, NE, SE, SW, NW) under a clear crystal. Rope-twist borders frame the case, with silver-tone wire wraps at top and bottom, and it hangs from a large round bail.

Compass charms and fobs were favorite gifts for sweethearts and sailors alike, a promise that the wearer would always find the way home.
