Long before the days of fancy clocks and sophisticated wrist watches we would tell the time using the positioning of the sun. An impressive and inspired method that uses a flat plate and dial to cast a shadow on its surface. Marked lines indicate the time of day and as the sun moves the shadow edges align with each hour marking.If you love nothing more than filling your home with antiques and old-fashioned artifacts then why not extend it to your garden and adopt such a method with the beautiful brass sundial? And make it even more special when you personalise it with a message to be engraved along the bottom. Perhaps the name of a couple or a special date in roman numerals.A unique and thoughtful wedding gift to fill the nest of two newlyweds. What Can I Put On My Sundial? Personalise it with a message in up to 40 characters. Dimensions: Diameter: 20cmMaterial: Brass
