The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A horizontal sundial is a traditional timekeeping instrument featuring a flat plate etched with hour markers and a raised gnomon that casts a shadow to indicate local solar time.

Antique sundials were predominantly cast from copper alloys such as bronze or brass due to their durability and natural resistance to outdoor weathering.

Authentic period examples often feature hand-engraved Roman numerals, maker markings, precise hand-chased gnomons, and natural verdigris patination rather than artificially painted weathering.

An antique bronze sundial serves as a focal point when positioned atop a stone pedestal in a parterre, garden border, or displayed as a curios decorative accent on a deep window sill.

To preserve the natural verdigris patina, clear outdoor debris regularly and apply a light coat of microcrystalline wax annually to protect the metal without stripping its aged character.
