Whitehall Products Loon Sundial

While it is designed as a functional timekeeping device, its primary purpose is decorative. Because it is a fixed piece, it will only tell accurate time if it is positioned correctly for your specific latitude and longitude, though most users treat it as a garden accent.

The sundial is finished with a weather-resistant paint specifically formulated for outdoor durability. While it is built to withstand various climates without rusting, some minor weathering is natural over many years of direct sun exposure.

It does not come with a pedestal, so you will need a flat, stable surface to place it on. It works well on top of a stone pillar, a garden wall, or a dedicated sundial pedestal, provided the surface is level.

The sundial weighs 4 pounds. While it is sturdy enough to sit securely on a flat surface, if you live in an area with extremely high winds, you may want to secure it to your mounting surface with a small amount of outdoor-rated adhesive.

No, the sundial is crafted from recycled aluminum, which is naturally rust-free. It is an excellent choice for outdoor environments because it won't corrode or degrade like iron or steel might over time.
