Diptych dial, leaves Ib and IIa
Diptych dial for latitudes 42-54 North. Rectangular diptych dial consisting of two leaves that fold flat when not in use. Leaf I is chipped at its right-hand corner (the non-hinged end). Leaf Ia displays a standard windrose except eight winds are named in Italian. Leaf Ib is as standard (see related terms) except the pin gnomon is missing from the length-of-day dial; Babylonian and Italian hours are not shown. Below this dial is an engraving of a town panorama with a decoration of leaves and fruit to the left and right. Holes for the string gnomon are numbered 42, 45, 48, 51 and 54. Below is a table of latitudes in two columns of European towns. There is no vertical dial.
