MORZINE . FRANCE . A Rustic & Rusty Alpine Dial 2021

A charming rustic dial incorporated into an iron balcony in Morzine – a surprise find. It seems accurately designed for its specific location and aspect. Included are its longitude and latitude. The hours marked are (most unusually) from 6 to 17: a dial based on the 24-hour clock. The design includes the sun shining cheerfully above the gnomon with a star on either side. A most enjoyable dial to come across by chance. The motto is one we should all abide by…
