Questions About Ships Binnacle
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    The binnacle of the ship refers to the housing for the ship’s compass. The binnacle provides a barrier from the iron materials of the ship so that the compass can point north accurately. On 1stDibs, find a collection of ship’s binnacles from some of the world’s top sellers.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    A sea compass is known as a gyroscopic compass or gyrocompass. A gyroscopic compass is favored for ships because it’s a non-magnetic compass based on the rotation of the earth to dictate direction, unaffected by the ship’s steel hull. Shop a collection of vintage compasses on 1stDibs.
