Celebrate the sun and the time you spend in it using this Esschert Design Gray Slate Sundial. Showcasing this sundial in your landscaping perfectly continues the enduring tradition of using the sun for timekeeping, furthered even more by its durable slate construction.
A classic starburst shape rests near the base of this dial, with carved lines emanating from it to the exterior ring of Roman numerals. A tall gnomon installs into pre-drilled holes in the center of the dial, aligning nicely with the 12:00 mark. The numerals around the unit range from 5 AM to 7 PM, great for indicating the sun time at a glance.
The packaging also includes a chart and angle demarcations, helping you situate this dial at the correct angle for your latitude, for accurate sun time with ease. The light gray color of the numerals and details contrasts the darker gray background, forming a dramatic focal point, and the flat base is easy to place on the ground or a pedestal (not included).
The natural slate construction handily withstands exposure to weather, celebrating two elements of the world at once. Allow this Gray Slate Sundial to help you enjoy decorating and spending time in your yard.
