A Figurative Armillary Sculpture With Classical Symbolism

This Atlas armillary sphere sundial is a striking bronze garden sculpture that combines classical mythology with traditional astronomical design. At the centre, Atlas is shown supporting the armillary sphere above his head, creating a powerful and instantly recognisable image associated with strength, endurance, and the passage of time.

As a result, the sculpture feels both decorative and symbolic, making it a meaningful addition to a wide range of outdoor settings.

Rich Verdigris Finish With Strong Structural Presence

The Atlas figure and oval base are finished in a rich verdigris bronze, giving the sculpture a cohesive and timeless appearance. In addition, the solid oval base provides excellent stability, ensuring the piece sits securely when installed outdoors.

Because of this strong foundation, the sculpture works equally well as a standalone garden feature or when raised on a pedestal to increase height and visual impact.

Contrasting Metals For Added Visual Depth

Above the figure, the armillary sphere introduces carefully chosen material contrasts. The main vertical ring is finished in bronze, while the additional rings are crafted in copper and brass. Therefore, the sculpture benefits from subtle tonal variation without losing its classical balance.

Furthermore, the central arrow features a verdigris bronze arrowhead and tail, visually linking the sundial back to the Atlas figure below.

Ideal For Patios, Terraces And Formal Gardens

This sculpture is particularly well suited to patios, terraces, and classical garden layouts where figurative and architectural elements are appreciated. When positioned as a focal point within a border or raised on a plinth, it naturally draws attention without overpowering the surrounding space.

As a result, it works beautifully in both traditional and transitional garden designs.

A Thoughtful Choice For Marking Important Milestones

Because armillary spheres represent time and continuity, this Atlas sculpture is often chosen to commemorate special occasions. These include anniversaries, weddings, retirements, promotions, and other meaningful life events.

In this way, the sculpture offers not only visual beauty but also lasting personal significance.

Solid Bronze Construction For Long-Term Outdoor Display

Cast entirely in solid bronze, this sculpture is designed for permanent outdoor installation. It is weather resistant and suitable for year-round display.

Over time, the verdigris and mixed metal finishes will naturally mature, adding depth and character while preserving the sculpture’s form and detailing.
