Brass Sundial Compass on Round Base – Wholesale Heritage Gifts

Make Time for What Matters

A career is measured in more than years. It is measured in people encouraged, ideas pursued and moments made meaningful. Our brass sundial compass brings time and direction together in a heritage-inspired display, offering your customers a thoughtful way to mark a new chapter.

At Aladean, we make this piece for collections and recognition projects that begin with a person, not just an occasion. A retirement gift can say, “The next hours are yours.” A mentor's keepsake can recall the direction they helped others find.

Brass Detail, Dark Contrast

• Solid brass sundial ring with engraved time markings.
• Hinged sundial section and curved marked latitude-style scale.
• Magnetic compass beneath the sundial assembly.
• Dark gnomon and supports contrasted with warm brass.
• Black circular base with brass-toned adjustment fittings and a small green bubble-level detail.

One compass assembly is the product unit. Agree current dimensions, weight, base material, movement and fittings through sample review. Ask us to confirm inclusion, material and lining of the round brown carrying case for your quoted supply. Additional gift boxes, cards and display props are not automatically included.

A Collection with a Thoughtful Purpose

We welcome enquiries from nautical and heritage gift retailers, collector shops, interior buyers, online resellers, importers and distributors. Corporate gifting agencies can discuss retirement recognition, professional milestones and mentor appreciation projects.

As your manufacturer and wholesale supplier, we can review a bulk supply brief around the audience, presentation and approved sample. The standard markings remain part of the design unless a separately quoted change is agreed.

Wholesale Order Basis

Standard MOQ: 100 complete compass units. Genuine B2B and corporate projects may be considered with quantity flexibility by prior agreement, not an automatic waiver.

The displayed price is an individual-unit basis, not the total value of the minimum order. Request a trade quotation covering quantity, confirmed case inclusion, personalization, packing and delivery destination. Sample availability, charges and dispatch are agreed separately.

Heritage-Inspired, Not a Navigation Guarantee

Our sundial compass is a modern decorative reproduction, not an original antique or authenticated sailing-ship instrument. We do not promise calibrated direction, accurate timekeeping or a tested latitude-setting range.

Review compass response, hinged movement, scale details, adjustment fittings and bubble-level behaviour on the current sample if they matter to your project. Use it as decorative deskware, not a sole navigation tool or safety instrument. Nearby magnets, metal and electronics can affect compass readings.

Your Message, Carefully Placed

Discuss a recipient name, short dedication, date or company logo with us before ordering. We review suitable space and surface; the dial, sundial markings, gnomon, level and moving parts are not automatically suitable for engraving. An additional inscription does not automatically replace standard markings. Case marking requires separate feasibility review.

For agreed personalization, buy the Aladean Personalization Add-On and this compass in the same cart. In order notes, enter exact text, preferred language and identify this round-base sundial compass and requested component or surface.

The add-on is separately purchased, not included in the standard price. We agree feasibility, script suitability, artwork, placement, service quantities, charges and timing. For bulk orders, confirm how many personalization services are needed rather than assuming one add-on covers the whole supply. Check wording and approve the digital mockup before custom production.

Samples, Packing and International Sourcing

Send your quantity, delivery country, postal code and required date. Approve current dimensions, finish, base, fittings, case specification and any engraving against the sample before production.

We discuss protective support for the hinged ring, gnomon, compass cover and adjustment parts, along with case and outer-carton requirements. Optional branded presentation is quoted separately. Lifestyle and packing images are illustrative concepts, not a documented customer scene or proof of standard packaging.

Sample review, artwork approval, production, dispatch and transit timing are agreed for each project. We commit only to what we can deliver. Arrival for an event or launch requires express agreement.

Care for the Keepsake

Place on a stable, dry surface. Lift by the base rather than the hinged ring or scale. Dust gently with a soft cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners, moisture and forcing moving parts. Ask us for finish-specific polishing and case-care advice.

Tell us who the gift is for, your quantity, destination, required date and message or presentation brief. We can discuss a sample and quotation for a collection that gives time and direction a personal meaning.
