To cast the dial, an impression of the sundial pattern is made into high quality sand designed specifically for brass casting. Molten brass is then poured into a hole in the sand that fills the mold. After cooling, the sand surrounding the sundial is removed and the finishing process begins.  Made from solid brass using the ancient art of sand casting. The finish is a beautiful hand rubbed aged patina. Each piece is hand finished so variation in the patina finish is normal.  This brass dial will requires no care to further develop a rich natural verdigris patina finish over the years. Brass does not rust and is a perfect material for heirloom quality garden art.
