Colonial Polished Brass Sundial, 8.5″ dia.
Bring a bold bit of history to your garden ornaments using this Rome Brass Colonial Sundial. This durable, solid brass adornment not only celebrates the passage of time; its raised accents evoke colonial American style. A compass rose occupies the center of this item, followed by spread wings and an hourglass at the base. The phrase “Let others tell of storms and showers/I’ll only mark your sunny hours” rests beneath this detail, and Roman numerals arc around the top to complete the piece. The brass gnomon sports a dragon detail, and attaches to the base in moments. When oriented celestial north, the gnomon casts a shadow over the Roman numerals indicating sun time from 5 AM to 7 PM. A port on the base of the dial allows you to securely display this unit on a Rome sundial pedestal (not included), or the level base may be nestled in your landscaping for a different look. Its brass construction handily withstands exposure to the elements, while its muted gold and green tones further the aged effect. Highlight a past age and style in your yard with this Brass Colonial Sundial.
