FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
Q1: What is a Brass Sundial Compass Clock? A Brass Sundial Compass Clock is a vintage-style instrument that combines two ancient tools, a sundial (which measures solar time using shadow) and a magnetic compass (which determines direction), into one elegant collectible piece. It is crafted from premium brass and is used for home décor, travel, gifting, and collecting.
Q2: Is the sundial and compass functional or just decorative? Both the sundial and the compass are fully functional. The magnetic compass needle accurately points North, and the sundial works in direct sunlight to display solar time. It is not just a decorative item, it is a working vintage instrument.
Q3: Which size should I choose - 3 inch or 4 inch? Choose the 3-inch if you want a portable, pocket-friendly compass for outdoor use or a compact desk decoration. Choose the 4-inch for a more prominent display piece, ideal for gifting, shelves, and office desks where visual impact matters.
Q4: Is the Brass Golden Sundial Compass Clock a good gift? Absolutely. It is one of the most unique and memorable gifts for men, travellers, history enthusiasts, compass collectors, and home décor lovers. It's perfect for birthdays, Father's Day, anniversaries, Diwali, Christmas, and graduation gifts.
Q5: What material is the compass clock made of? The Brass Golden Sundial Compass Clock is made from premium-grade brass and glass. The brass gives it a warm, golden antique finish that is durable, rust-resistant, and develops a beautiful patina over time.

Q7: What is ArtyCraftz's return policy for this product? ArtyCraftz offers a 3-day easy return policy and a 5-working-day refund policy on this product. For full details, please refer to the Return & Refund Policy page on our website.
Q8: How do I use a sundial compass to tell time? To use the sundial: place it on a flat, horizontal surface in direct sunlight. Align the compass needle to North. The shadow cast by the gnomon (the triangular piece) on the dial face will indicate the approximate solar time. Results are most accurate at solar noon (when the sun is at its highest).
