The BLK Short Classic Sandstone Sundial is designed for garden enthusiasts and homeowners seeking a timeless, hand-finished centerpiece for their patio or yard. This piece offers the distinct aesthetic of traditional craftsmanship, combining a durable sandstone base with elegant solid brass detailing.

While it functions as a sundial, it may not be 100% accurate and should be viewed primarily as a decorative garden accessory.
The sundial stands 56 cm tall, with a 36 cm top diameter and a 31 cm base diameter.
No, because the product uses natural sandstone, the finish may vary in color from piece to piece.
The piece weighs 25 kg, providing a stable, heavy foundation for outdoor use.
It is hand-finished in Somerset, UK, using sustainable construction methods.
While it features a waterproof lining, it is recommended to move it to a sheltered area during extreme weather to preserve the finish.
Ensure the sundial is placed on a perfectly level surface and in a location with unobstructed direct sunlight.
Gently clean with a damp cloth; note that minor variations in color are a natural characteristic of sandstone.
Use a specialized brass polish sparingly, ensuring you do not get polish on the porous sandstone surface.
Setting up the sundial is straightforward due to its heavy, stable base. Simply ensure the ground is level to prevent the sundial from tilting, which could further affect timekeeping accuracy. For cleaning, wipe the sandstone surface periodically with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust or garden debris. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that could degrade the protective waterproof lining or the finish on the brass. During extreme winter conditions, consider moving the unit to a sheltered area to prevent potential frost damage to the porous sandstone material.
