Aurora is the Roman goddess of dawn, the namesake of this sundial.
While the time on a wristwatch is a division of time devised by humans to suit their needs, Aurora reflects the natural course of the sun. When the sun rises every morning and climbs steadily to its highest point in the south, it is noon and the sundial shows 12 o'clock true local time (TLT) at your location. This true noon actually divides the day into two equal halves, and it now takes exactly the same amount of time for the sun to set again in the evening.
Aurora is a model of our globe. It is a beautiful and easy-to-understand teaching aid that allows you to clearly follow the origins of our time measurement and the formation of the seasons.
The six-part plug-in kit can be assembled into a sturdy sundial in just a few minutes.
The oldest timepiece known to mankind, featuring elegant design and precision craftsmanship – these are the sundials from Helios.
