Please note:
- This item will be personalised exactly as you have written so please double check spelling, punctuation and use of capital letters
- Personalised products can only be returned if they are faulty
- Do not include accents and special symbols as some of our processes will not allow this
- Due to the font type used please do not use all capitals in your personalised message, or the personalisation will be very difficult to read
Q: Where does the personalisation go? Is it on both the compass and the box?
A: Yes, you can personalise both! Your longer message (up to 60 characters) is engraved around the edge of the brass compass itself. The recipient's initials (up to 3 characters) are then added to a separate brass plate on the wooden presentation box.
Q: What are the character limits for the personalisation?
A: You can have a message of up to 60 characters engraved on the compass itself. For the initials on the wooden box's brass plate, the limit is 3 characters.
Q: Can I use special characters or all capital letters in my message?
A: For the best result, please avoid using special symbols or accents in your message. It is also recommended not to write your message in all capital letters, as the font style used can make it difficult to read.
Q: Is this a real, working compass or just for decoration?
A: It is a fully functional compass. While it makes a beautiful keepsake or paperweight, it is designed to work correctly and can be removed from its presentation box for practical use.
Q: What happens if I make a spelling mistake in my personalisation?
A: The engraving will be made exactly as you type it, so it's very important to double-check all your spelling and punctuation before placing the order. As personalised items are unique to you, they can only be returned if there is a fault with the product itself.
Q: How long does personalisation add to the delivery time?
A: As this item is specially personalised for you, it requires a little extra time to be prepared before it's dispatched. We recommend allowing a few extra days for delivery, particularly during busy gift-giving periods, to ensure it arrives on time.
Q: What is the compass and the presentation box made from?
A: The compass is crafted from premium brass with a sophisticated brushed finish. It is presented in a fine, mahogany-stained wooden box, making it a high-quality and thoughtful gift.
Q: How should I clean and care for the brass compass?
A: To keep the brushed brass looking its best, we recommend occasionally polishing it with a soft, dry cloth. This will help to maintain its shine and remove any fingerprints from handling.
