Mid 20th Century Antique Iron Wall Sundial

About the Item

Mid 20th Century antique iron wall sundial with a nice weathered paint finish. This is an unusual sundial that mounts on a wall facing South to tell the time of day. Hanging in the center of the sundial is an iron arrow known as a Gnomon. The Gnomon when positioned correctly will cast a shadow on one of the numbers 1-12 to tell the time of day. It's a great piece, looks amazing hanging on a exterior or interior wall.
