Sundials are literally as old as time.
Age-old mysteries and wonders inherent in the movement of sunshadows echo in them. No one knows when man first learned to tell time, but the sundial art was developed by the ancient Egyptians, Babylonians, and Greeks. Thanks to these cultures we have these magnificent instruments to adorn a favorite garden spot. These original designs, coupled with such dedication to quality, will assure many years of enjoyment. This sundial and pedestal will be my Christmas present to my husband as we celebrate our first Christmas together and anniversary.
