This replica 18th Century Diptych Sundial Compass is quite fascinating and measures 5" long, 2.5" wide, and 4.25" tall.

A fully functional piece, it features a brass sundial and compass housed in a folding case made from solid mahogany. The compass card is vibrantly colored for added visual appeal.

Modeled after an 18th-century German diptych travel sundial, this design includes two time scales and a classic wood-and-brass build. When opened to a 90º angle, a stretched rope casts a shadow across the dial to indicate the hour—just like the originals once used to set mechanical watches. Before wristwatches became common, this was your reliable daylight timekeeper, powered by the sun.

Whether placed among nautical décor or on an executive desk, this piece is sure to stand out.

Dimensions: 5" L x 2.5" W x 4.25" H Materials: Brass and Mahogany Wood
