True North Compass Ship Wheel Black & Gold Steel Necklace

North, and a wheel to steer by.

The True North Compass Ship Wheel Black & Gold Steel Necklace sets a 24K gold plated ship wheel at the centre of a compass medallion, the four cardinal points lettered N, E, S and W around a black textured dial. Built in two-tone 24K gold plated and black plated 316L stainless steel, it is a mens steel necklace that reads as nautical without a single anchor on it.

The dial is finely knurled so it drinks light while the gold wheel throws it back, which is what makes the centre pop from across a room. The box chain is polished steel, heavy enough to hold the medallion square.

The 22'' chain sits high on the chest, easy to wear open collar and easy to layer with a longer chain. It is a straightforward everyday mens compass necklace and an easy gift for him. The steel is waterproof and will not tarnish, so it stays on through the shower, the gym and the sea.

The Meaning Behind the Compass and the Ship Wheel

A compass points somewhere whether or not you are looking at it, which is why sailors trusted it over their own sense of direction. True north is the fixed one, the direction that never drifts the way magnetic north does. Put a ship wheel at its centre and the piece says the rest: knowing where north is and steering toward it are two different jobs, and both of them are yours.
