Details
Named in tribute to the world famous clipper Cutty Sark, this antique-finish brass compass has an engraving of the globe on the underside centering particularly on Australia, destination for Cutty Sark on many occasions to bring wool and other cargo back to England.

In December 1883, Cutty Sark broke the record for the fastest passage back to London from Australia, she was to break her own record on several occasions subsequently.



Diameter 3.25".

Brass

Brass - an alloy of copper and zinc - is easy to work with, can be polished to a gleaming shine, and it has a high degree of corrosion resistance, making it the traditional choice of metal for use in harsh marine environments.

Cutty Sark

The world’s last intact clipper ship, now preserved in a spectacular dry dock at Greenwich, London. Long, lean, and beautiful, she was built in 1869 for the tea trade but made redundant by the completion of the Suez Canal, which made steam ships more economic. Instead she earned her living, and incredible reputation for speed, in the long distance wool trade from Australia.
