I absolutely love this compass! I was looking for something a little unique but not crazy, yet a little bit of classic to put over an additional buffet in our front room. I kept looking at this thinking that this piece didn’t quite go with our overall decor but decided to take a chance on it when it’s price dropped- and boy am I glad I did! It fits in with our overall style perfectly, it is sturdy but lighter than i thought it would be and it looks better in person than the picture gives it credit for. As a result our boys go by it and talk about how cool it is!
