Whitehall Products Day Sailor Sundial

Because it is crafted from durable aluminum with a weather-resistant finish, this sundial is low-maintenance. You can simply wipe it down with a damp cloth occasionally to remove dust or debris, and it will hold up well to year-round outdoor exposure.

This piece is versatile and can be mounted on a flat surface, such as a stone wall, or attached to a dedicated pedestal. It is designed for stability, so ensure whatever surface you choose is level to maintain accurate timekeeping.

To get accurate readings, you must orient the sailboat-shaped gnomon toward celestial north. Once it is positioned correctly on a level surface, the shadow cast by the gnomon will align with the markings on the dial to indicate the sun time.

At 3 pounds, the sundial has enough weight to remain stable in most garden settings. However, if you are placing it in a high-wind area, we recommend securing it to your pedestal or mounting surface using the appropriate hardware for your specific base.

The aluminum construction is naturally rust-proof, and the Oil Rub Bronze finish is specifically applied to withstand outdoor elements. While all outdoor finishes may experience very subtle weathering over many years, this piece is built to maintain its aesthetic integrity throughout the seasons.
