A sundial can provide an elegant and unique touch to anybody’s space. Whether you prefer to tuck one away in a nook of your garden, or to display one on a sun-soaked wall of your home, your choice of a sundial will necessarily reflect your personality as well as the surrounding décor. If you put in the extra effort to plan the construction and location well, you can enjoy your sundial for many years.
Sundials make a fine point of interest in any garden and are easy to install and maintain. Since many are made of heavy, durable materials such as stone and bronze, they are difficult to pilfer. A well-constructed sundial can be accurate to within twenty seconds on any given day of the year, and some of them are even designed to tell time at night. Daylight Savings Time can be figured in with a quick mental adjustment; but this small inconvenience is negligible when set next to the enduring beauty and sense of grounding a sundial can bring to one’s home.
