Shepherdess News!

Ancient Mariner’s Solar Time Piece and Pendant—Richard Salley

Sunday, September 7, 10:00am to 5:00 pm

This project incorporates Faux Bone and copper to create a pendant that is not only decorative but also a functioning compass and sundial. When closed it appears to be an ordinary pendant the triangle dangling from the bottom will serve as part of the sundial. When opened the compass and sundial face plate are revealed. The compass can be removed and the copper triangle is put in place to serve as the gnomon (shadow caster) for the sundial.
