We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer.

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
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.

A slate sundial is a horizontal or vertical timekeeping device featuring an engraved slate face and a metal gnomon that casts a shadow to indicate the hour based on the position of the sun.

Historically, sundials were crafted from durable, weather-resistant materials such as slate, limestone, bronze, and brass, ensuring the precise mathematical engravings remained legible over time.

Authentic antique slate sundials typically exhibit hand-engraved Roman numerals, directional scrollwork, period inscriptions, natural weathering, and patinated brass or bronze gnomons showing signs of oxidisation.

An antique slate sundial can be displayed indoors as a sculptural focal point on a mantelpiece, bookshelf, or console table, or positioned outside on a stone pedestal within a garden display.

Clean the slate gently using clean water and a soft brush, avoiding harsh chemicals or acidic cleaners, and preserve the natural patination on the brass gnomon without polishing.
