The first compass in China is called Sinan, which is made of a magnet spoon and a wooden plate under it.
Later, the wooden plate was replaced by many other materials such as thread, water and so on.
I hope it is useful for you.

Adding on to that, one of the first compasses made in China was actually made with a lodestone point.
