The greeks have used sundials to measure time since 100 B.C. Reminiscent of classic Greek mythology, this atlas Armillary sundial will demand attention, whether placed in your home or garden. An exquisite & functional work of art, the sphere is imprinted with roman numerals to measure time as the sun casts it's shadow throughout the day, just as it did in ancient Greece.

There was a problem with the original shipment but the company quickly corrected it. I received a replacement the next day. The Armillary was made well and looked great.

This is really nice and quite large. I am using it as a decorative object inside the house, may install outside on a pedestal later, but it’s really enjoyable to look at every day and good quality.

Just arrived today ! Put it together with ease. I need to get a pedestal but it is a perfect addition to my greenhouse that I'm just getting started on!! It has the potential to be an heirloom!!!

We cut a small tree down in the garden and wanted something to put on the stump. Found this sundial on Amazon and thought it would look good. Super easy to put together, literally two minutes to complete. very happy with how it looks.

This is a lovely, quality statement piece to be used inside or outside. Only con for me was, since using inside, needs to be mounted on a base for added stability

It was pretty cool, except that it was broken when it arrived. Being that it was a present, I’ve been unable, as yet, to get it returned for replacement.

Arrived today, noticed the gnomon had broken through the inner and outer cardboard packaging. After fully unpacking, checked the alignment and found it had bent about 5 or 10 degrees where the ball is at, opposite the threaded hold for the rod. Was able to carefully straighten it.Castings were fair, details were somewhat crude. The brass band with the roman numerals had some kind of oil or grease that I had to clean off. There were several places on the sphere where the paint had been abraded/chipped off. I may get some Krylon and repaint later this summer.Based on the price for this item, I'm disappointed in the damages and recommend that the packaging be improved to protect the sphere and gnomon better.For those who don't know how to align this after assembly, first of all find out what your latitude is (since you obviously have a computer, you can get that from Google Maps or other mapping software), and set the gnomon angle to match. Then if you're in the Northern hemisphere, you want the arrow to be pointing North, and if you're in the Southern hemisphere, you want it pointing South. If you happen to be directly on the Equator, you can choose either direction.

Well-made and BeautifulExcellent item, very substantial and nicely finished. Easy to put together in a matter of minutes. This is a quality piece. Looks great in the garden. I have it on a tree stump but will definitely be getting a pedestal for it to be more of a focal point in the garden.

First of all this product arrived quickly and extremely well packed. Good Directions made it with as little parts as possible which makes the assembly very easy, only four easy to understand steps. it is extremely durable which is good since it can be placed outdoors. I thought of putting this in my office but it makes such a statement and look incredible on our mantel. I was also going to put it outside once it was nicer out but now I will need to buy another one because that one we have is not moving from the mantel. I understand Good Directions makes other products like Weathervanes, Cupolas and birding products, I will definitely be checking out those items too.
