The Henry Wilson Compass Hook in Bronze is made, finished and polished in Sydney, Australia using sand-casted Gunmetal Bronze. For its size, it can bear a surprisingly substantial heft.
Sand-casting involves liquefying metal and pouring it into a sand mould. The Compass Hook is designed around the arcs of a compass; the intersecting lines giving it a feeling of sturdy utility. It is manufactured in small batches so slight variations will occur from piece to piece. They will arrive with a bright finish but will oxidise and darken over time to reveal a distinctive patina.
