Description.
The porcelain artistic technique is too sophisticated to be widely used for making sundials. In this article we are very glad to share our experience with BSS Bulletin readers. Elena has developed the subject of the image and has made the main part of work. Aleksandr has delineated the dial and has written this text. He was extremely happy when ordered to make other casual work of the kind.
For comprehensive representation of how we made this sundial see BSS Bulletin, 2008, V 20, p 20.
