THE THOMAS LAWSON SCHOONER 1902-1905
The Mariner Collection
According to the dictionary, A Mariner is "a person who directs or assists in the navigation of a ship." Presumably Mariners used a compasses to help find their way. We have created a collection centered around antique compass fobs. Compass watch fobs were popular from the mid 1800's to the early 1900's and are rarely in pristine condition. We have refurbished a number of them and paired them with vintage nautical charms. The anchor, heart and cross are the traditional sailors charms and we have found a few of those antique sets for our necklaces.
