Personalised Sundials from Sunset Designs

Sundials have an enduring appeal and fascination despite the popularity of the mechanical timepiece. The transitory passage of sunlight casting a shadow on a dial is both mysterious and yet natural and logical. Despite their relatively simple appearance a sundial is a scientific instrument that is precisely constructed for its location according to accurate measurement of latitude, longitude and elevation.

Sunset Designs work with professional sundial makers to offer a wide range of designs, from the familiar wall and plinth mounted examples to complex armillary models. Although generally fashioned from metal they can also be engraved into stone. Each sundial is a unique object constructed for its final position. It can be further personalised with additional engraving to incorporate a message, logo or other inscription.
