About this piece
back to topWith its large size and eye-catching design, this reclaimed armillary sundial makes a striking focal point in any garden. It features a large late 20th century steel armillary sphere elevated on an antique 19th century York stone pedestal. This is weathered with beautiful ageing that only exposure to the elements through time can create.
Garden Armillary Sundial
As opposed to the classic flat sundial, an armillary sundial is characterised by its spherical shape, often referred to as an armillary sphere. Invented by the ancient Greeks, this open spherical framework consists of several interlocking metal rings that showcase how they believe the universe worked, with the earth at the centre and the stars moving around it.
