Customer Comments
Dear Michelle Hartland

I am so grateful for the Old English Sheepdog bust that I feel compelled to write this note to you. We had already purchased the Dog Lead Plaque and House Number Plaque(two horse heads) and just could not find the bust to complete our collection of your superb bronze works. Hense the direct contact with you.

Your response and the ’with compliments’ leaves me flabbergasted in this day and age.

Thank you so very much for such stupendous service. Be assured of my recommendation of your products to our friends.

Armillary Sundials

Armillary Sundials

A most distinguished garden ornament, for the discerning landscaper
We have now produced a delightful collection of Armillaries some of which are reproduced from famous, ancient Armillaries still in existence. We have also sculptured and designed some of our own in what has become a new and unique collection. Whilst we know that time stands still for no man, what better way to "mark it" than by having your own ornamental Armillary proudly displayed in your own beloved garden.

If you would like to further enhance your precious new Sundial or Armillary, why not complete the look with a specially designed Sundial or Armillary Column. These columns are very sturdy and are designed to support the weight and size of even our grandest Armillary. For your Armillary and Sundial columns please click on this link
Garden Sundial Columns.

We have included special installation literature for you to be able to set up your Armillary, in your chosen location. If you need help setting up your Armilary please click this link Armilary Instruction Sheet .

For more information on Sundials and Armillaries you may wish to contact the British Sundial Society on their website www.sundialsoc.org.uk.

PLEASE NOTE:
It should be noted that our sundials are ornamental and in some cases due to the artistic nature in which they are created do not provide true and accurate time readings, some are totally ornamental only, Please contact us if you want your sundial packed in a green presentation box! Or need any advice.

The Serpent Armillary, this is an armillary that certainly belongs in a garden or terrace of discernable quality. It is the biggest and heaviest armillary that we have ever created, and is quite awe inspiring to see. It features the neck and head of a serpent about to strike its prey, which curves at the top of the armillary, whilst the arrow which passes through the middle of the armillary has a very finely detailed head and flight. Ornate decoration and classic roman numerals complete the design.

Bright Chrome Armillary

Part Number: HS026/BC

Bright Chrome Armillary
Our Bright Chrome Armillary has a bright modern finish to a lovely old design.
We are quite a traditional bunch of folk here at black country metal works, but even here we sometimes like to do things a little differently! We loved this look, and think, for all you trendy people with decking and modern, chrome object d’art, this will make a great addition and will blend in perfectly. Of course, as with all our Armillaries, they all look amazing indoors too.
This particular one has lovely Roman numerals depicted along its time line.
We have chosen to display this on our verdigris sundial and armillary column, which is sold separately. We think it adds just the right finishing touch!

Armilary Wrought Iron Scroll Design

Part Number: HS040

Armilary Wrought Iron Scroll Design
Armilary Wrought Iron Scroll Design
The genuine article an armillary made from wrought iron and antiqued in our own special finish. That really does provide a beautiful statement in your garden that has been weighted so that they don’t fall over in the wind, as with cheaper alternatives. However we still recommend using mastic or all weather adhesive to secure the item to your column or chosen surface. We recommend either a light oiling every season or using hammerite paints but invariably they are seasoned to provide a very rustic aged appearance, so if it was my choice I would suggest leaving the item to age naturally.

Armilary Wrought Iron Square plinth Design
Armilary Wrought Iron Square plinth Design
This is one of two new and captivating Armillaries, that have been aged using our latest “ rust” metal finish. A lovely square plinth design, with fluted neck that is simply styled and one that has been specially weighted so that it resists falling over when the weather is windy, although for optimum care of your armillary and for obvious security benefits, we would always recommend permanent securing of your armillary to a stone table or Column.

we have a wonderful selection of matching armillary columns to choose from, that will further enhance you timepiece)

We have found that an ordinary all weather mastic is fine. We also recommend a light oiling every season..

Although the Vintage look is now very popular, with the emphasis on allowing the ironwork to rust naturally.

The look targeted is for the object to blend with its natural surroundings and age and weather without protection.

Here at Black Country Metal Works, this is our personal favourite, It is more exspensive than other options we offer. It’s visually impacting and it is an example of our great craftmanship.

The main band is engraved showing the Roman numerals, the brass rings are Notched and patterned to include all the time lines.

There has never been anyone buying this Armillary, that hasn’t been totally delighted!
