Garden Sundials
Historians and researchers believe that the first sundial was created around 3500B.C by the Egyptians, where they would use a simple method of placing a stock, or gnomon, into the ground and would calculate the time based on the length of the shadow that was cast. Modernising this technique, each of these beautiful garden sundials have been expertly crafted from solid brass and finished in an array of elegant finishes to suit any garden style or grounds setting. Highly decorative, these sundials will add those crucial finishing touches to any exterior space and will become a true focal point when placed on patios or within the centre of garden landscapes.
