Designed with a traditional equatorial layout, this piece features a prominent outer band cast with raised Roman numerals and star accents, centered by a stylized eight-pointed compass rose.
An arrow-shaped gnomon—complete with an ornate arrow tip and feathered tail—pierces diagonally through the focal point, casting shadows across the dial face. The entire assembly rests angled upon a curved, crescent-shaped support arm decorated with scrolling relief details. Supporting the structure is a heavy, tiered circular base engraved with subtle globe grid lines and cardinal direction indicators along its perimeter.
Crafted from solid, durable iron with a dark charcoal weathered coating, this decorative instrument serves as a striking focal point for traditional gardens, sunrooms, bookshelves, or nautical-themed spaces. See less
