The compass has an eight-point rose and the magnetic variation is marked at 18 West of North. A turned wooden pillar, with a pivoted ball joint halfway up, supports the cube.The horizontal dial has an hour scale numbered clockwise IIII-XII, I-VIII and also shows a depiction of a wreath. The South vertical dial, marked 'SUD', has an hour scale and a looped garland around the gnomon and the North vertical dial, marked 'NORD', has an hour and a central depiction of a wreath. The West vertical dial has a diagonal hour scale with parallel hour-lines and a cherub is depicted with a garland. The East vertical dial is the same as the West except the cherubs are holding a latitude arc. There is a metal loop at the top of this, which holds a string plumb line and lead bob, which also act as a latitude indicator. There are five brass polar gnomons and the dial is signed 'I.G. KLEININGER' on the North face.J.G. Kleininger
