You gotta love this pewter and bronze pendant. It's a replica of the sundial ring that Eleanor of Aquitaine gave to King Henry II in 1152, with the original's Celtic knots and inscription Carpe diem (seize the day).

A sundial lets you determine time by registering the angle of the sun's rays to the earth. The sundial pendant is made in Canada.
