The Chinese compass points south. But the modern compass points north.
Though it would be much easier to use a modern-day compass, you could use an ancient Chinese compass if you have a working one. Most compasses from ancient China would have had to be well preserved to work. Maybe it does work, but it would probably be inaccurate because of it's age. If it is in complete working order (you could probably go to a well reviewed pawn shop to tell if it works or is accurate) then yes, you could still use it. Not many people do, though. You could buy some that supposedly work on E-Bay for $700. YIKES!
What did the chinese compass look like in 1898
No one knows. All we know is that the Chinese and Europeans helped to make the Chinese compass.
The main difference of the Chinese compass with the existing compass today is that the former makes use of ferrites or magnetic oxides. These are natural minerals that attract iron and other metals. Large deposits of ferrites were discovered thousands of years ago in the district of Magnesia in Asia Minor. The second difference is that the Chinese compass is always pointing on the south while the invented compass points to the north. The third is that invented compass is basically used for navigational purposes whereas the Chinese compass is used as a navigational tool and also as a beautiful piece of home décor and for Feng Shui.
