Sundials

For centuries, sundials have been used to mark the passage of time. OutSidePride.com commemorates the ancient sundial clock, which has survived for centuries, by offering an elegant collection of unique garden sundials.

Modern day timepieces have long since replaced the practical usefulness of the sundial, but there is still a sense of earthen nostalgia that makes garden sundials appropriate as functional garden decorations. Each rust-free recycled aluminum sundial is carefully finished with weather-resistant paint to withstand any climate.

The Golfer garden sundial is perfect for any golfer or garden lover. It features a 5.5 inch tall golfer that casts a shadow over the dial, letting you know the time. It is adorned with a detailed sand trap as well as a putting area lying in front of the golfer. The large numbers are easily readable from around your garden, keeping you on time to tee off.

Let your time flutter away with the Whitehall Butterfly Sundial. A perched butterfly forms the gnomon, while a meadow of flowers adorn the sundial's face. The butterfly gnomon casts a shadow to denote the time on the Roman numerals surrounding the face. Both the butterfly and flowers are formed in exquisite detail, beautifully accented by the hand-applied verdigris finish. Dimensions:10 inch diameter.

Keep time with the hummingbird in the Whitehall Hummingbird Sundial. The graceful hummingbird gnomon hovers gently over a cluster of flowers, pausing for a drink of nectar. The decorative gnomon casts its shadow onto large numbers surrounding the sundial to denote the time. Dimensions:9.5 inch diameter.

Catch some time with the Whitehall Fisherboy Sundial bath. The fishing rod provides the gnomon, which may be bent to your latitude for better accuracy. The gnomon's shadow denotes the time on large Roman numerals that line the perimeter of the bath. The fisherboy rests upon a dock that allows birds a place to perch after their bath. Dimensions:12.5 inch diameter.

Both birds and boating fanatics will love this Whitehall Sailboat Sundial Bird Bath. This delightful garden accent features a sailboat gnomon, whose shadow denotes the time on large Roman numerals surrounding the rim of the bird bath. The large sailboat is an attractive complement that provides shade for your winged friends. Dimensions:12.5 inch diameter.
