- European sundial, with a simple and very elegant design, which has its dial or limbo on a square base, ready to be placed on a base in the open air.
- The base is carefully carved with the various data and lines necessary for reading the shadow of the Gnomon. The hour numerals are Roman numerals. The pole star is engraved with the cardinal points and the corresponding hour lines.
- In the upper right-hand corner of the base, ‘WR’ is engraved freehand with a stylus.
- The Gnomon is a 0.5 cm x 0.8 cm profile, forming a V with another 0.5 cm x 0.9 cm profile, the latter of which is attached to the 0.15 cm thick base of the clock by means of two rectangular riveted bolts. These two profiles are joined by a simple watermark formed by two curved profiles of varying sizes. All these features make the clock sufficiently robust and resistant to possible damage.
- The base has four holes, one in each corner, in order to be able to fix the clock to the base, in a strong and solid way, by means of the corresponding screws.
- In order to adjust the clock to its geographical location, it will be fixed to a base inclined by the degrees corresponding to the latitude of the locality in which it is located, all in accordance with the inclination of the Gnomon.
- No distinctive mark or contrast has been found that could provide information on the place where it was made, the manufacturer's details, or any other information.
