Not so long ago, people actually lived according to sundial time. Each village and town functioned according to local time, depending on the local latitude. The arrival of trains and stagecoach services required a coordinated time. The travel sundial needs a compass to find the north. If you lift the triangular gnomon upright while pointing the compass needle north, the time is displayed. The correct time is displayed only if the local latitude matches the angle of the gnomon. Bronze dry compass, hand-coloured reproduction compass cards. Aged by hand and polished by hand. Colour: brass, brown Material: brass & glass Dimensions: LxWxH: 8.5 x 8.5 x 2.5 cm
