Location: Tucson, AZ / Kansas City, MO
Designer: John L. Carmichael, Jr.
The Sundial Cupola Project is a large four-sided cupola on a home in Tucson, Arizona that has four functioning accurate vertical sundials - one on each side (like a clock tower). It is the first and only one of its kind in North America. The Sundial Wall Sconce project is a large accurate wall sundial on a home in Kansas City, Missouri. The round sundial face is surrounded by stained glass and doubles as a wall sconce since it is illuminated from behind at night by an electric light. Porcelain enamel was chosen for each due to its durability.
"I can't heap enough praises upon KVO Industries for their excellent porcelain sundial faces that they made for me using my designs. Their products were absolutely flawless and turned out on time and just as I wanted (even better!) I was most impressed with their service representative's fine attention to detail and his outstanding professional service. After several years, the sundials still look like new. I highly recommend KVO Industries!"
