Hi all,
Someone showed me the pendant in the attached photo. It seems to have
two sundials in a kind of yin-yang arrangement. The glass beads focus
the sunlight. When properly positioned (equatorial and the long arrow
pointing south) the bright spot might show the hour. The diameter is ca.

Hello Frans,
I have seen similar dials at sundials shoppes in France. I believe they are
an Artissme product. They are based in Nyon and supply many shoppes in
tourist areas (Briançon, St Veran, Bormes les Mimosas) with a range of
sundials and related trinkets. Artissme has no web presence.

Frans,
I cannot say for certain, just observation. This arrangment appears to be
mostly artistic in nature. The familiar yin-yang you mention. Dark marble,
light marble, one dial pointing in a given direction, the other in the
opposite. The comma-shaped base being the yin-yang symbol.
