About the Item
Vintage T. Cooke of London prismatic compass. Brass case with pierced sight line in the lid, folding prism, metallic gold tone face, and short stand able to be screwed onto a tripod for stabilization.
"A prismatic compass is a compact and portable instrument primarily used for navigation and directional measurements. A prismatic compass consists of a magnetic needle, a prism, and a sighting system. The prism is positioned above the compass dial, allowing the user to simultaneously view the compass reading and the target through the prism. This design enables more accurate readings and convenient sighting. Prismatic compasses are typically compact, lightweight, and easy to carry, commonly used by hikers, mountaineers, military personnel, and outdoor enthusiasts who require a reliable tool for navigation and orientation in the field."
