Several years ago while on a UK Trade Mission I seem to recall seeing some of their products on the garden furniture floor of 'America's Mart' which is a sort of mammoth 'mall' for trade purchasers only in Atlanta. Certainly they were the objects of 'quantity production' - by 'shell moulding' perhaps?? - but the detailing was fine and the metalwork of good quality. Although it is unlikely they would be latitude specific they were designed as far as possible as working sundials and not the amazing 'nondials' we have seen recently from the Indian sub-continent. There again I may have got the name wrong! Tony Moss P.S. The usual disclaimer. -
