The top of this rosewood desk compass is embellished with a beautiful inlaid compass rose. Hand inlaying hardwood is an old time-honored art that requires considerable talent, patience, and precision from a highly trained artisan to create a beautiful one-of-a-kind piece. The inlayer must chisel out the surface of the wood in the shape of the design that will be inlaid, and then hand cut each individual piece of thin wood and precisely fit it into the hollowed out section. This solid hardwood box features an inlaid compass rose made from four different species of beautiful exotic hardwoods. If you have priced rosewood recently, you know that it is so expensive as to be sold by the inch rather than by the foot. The Rosewood Desk Compass with Hand Inlaid Hardwood Compass Rose is 3 inches (7.6 cm) square, 1 1/4 inches (3.2 cm) tall, and weighs 5.9 ounces (168 grams). Its hinged lid opens to reveal a 2 1/8 inch (5.4 cm) diameter beautiful polished solid brass compass.
