- "Our Spectra arrived perfectly
on time for our anniversary and was a huge hit with my wife.
Thank you again for making it for me. We set it up in our front
window in time to catch the sunrise Sunday morning and after
a few adjustments it works perfectly!"
- Tim, New York

-
- "The sundial arrived at my place
on our anniversary just like clockwork - perfect timing. Thank
you so much for working me into your schedule. We are both in
love with it. Your attention to detail sets this apart from any
I've ever seen. We are both blown away. Thank you so much again
and rest assured I will tell anyone I show it to how wonderful
you are to work with.
We will never forget our first anniversary and it's thanks to
you."

I received our sundial yesterday and just in time for our anniversary.
Thank you for going above and beyond
I really do appreciate
it. More importantly, the sundial is beautiful. It's very cool and I believe it was a hit!"

- "Thank you so much for all you've
done in making this beautiful sundial. It arrived on Friday as
planned and I must say it is stunning. My wife is very impressed
with it as well. It compliments the room beautifully! Once again
I can't thank you enough for "bumping" us up in line
to complete production by our anniversary. The way you treat
your customers is nothing short of exceptional. I've told all
my friends and colleagues just how happy I am with you and your
company. Keep up the great work!"

we both love it. Thank you very much for the consistent contact

looks terrific! Thanks so much for getting it done in time for
Christmas. I'll be having lunch with my friend tomorrow and will
present it to him then. He'll love it. Thank
you so much for your kind consideration and skill in making it
so perfectly. It'll have a good home and I'll be back for more
orders for friends and family."

- "We received our sundial today
and are reading all of the enclosed
information. It now resides on our bedroom dresser in front of
our window. It has been a pleasure doing business with you and
knowing that there is such great energy attached to the sundial;
you seem like an amazing man, really putting yourself into each
piece you design.
- I'm so glad I stumbled upon your
site."
- Alyson, California

- "The quality and workmanship
of the Spectra Sundial was as advertised. Great care had been
taken to make sure the dial came out flawless. Jim kept me posted
of the different stages, as the sundial was being constructed,
which almost made me feel like I was part of its creation. The
Spectra Sundial should be part of everyone's family, and will
be enjoyed and admired by all."
- Richard, Florida

- "We received our sundial ("cadran
solaire" in French) Friday last week, in perfect conditions.
It is a beautiful piece of craftmanship which will find its place
in our living room."
- Alain, France

-
- "I am happy to tell you that
my Spectra sundial has arrived this morning - and I am delighted
with it - I am like a child at Christmas. I am particularly pleased
that it arrived before the Winter Solstice. I
put the Spectra in the sitting room window where I had taken
the original measurements - it was spot on. The time was exact."
- Pat, Northern Ireland
-
-
- "The Spectra arrived today and
I must say it is more impressive than the pictures. Very high quality. Thanks for a fine work of art."
- Michael, Florida
-
-
- "I received my Spectra today
and it is really wonderful. Clearly you put a lot of work into
it, and thought alot about the details. I like the sandblasted
gnomon, and the way it is attached. I noticed how one edge rides
on the equinox line, so it can be used to follow the declination
of the sun. The base is handsome. It fits nicely in our sunroom,
and I hope it will be a talking point for our guests.
It is everything I hoped it would be, and more."
- Bill, Vermont

- "It has been a pleasure doing
business with you, and it will be my pleasure to talk to people
about this special gift. Everyone who already knows about it
is intrigued. Your emphasis on quality and precision is rare
in today's world and much appreciated. I was just visiting your
web site again to look at the quotes, and saw the prism cast
by the Spectra. I was struck by its beauty, and it brought to
mind the opening line (chanted 7 times in a row) of the Yom Kippur
service--on the Day of Atonement, the holiest day of the Jewish
year. The Hebrew is transliterated as follows: Or zarua la-tzadik,
u-l'yish-rey leyv simcha. It means: 'Light is sown for the righteous,
and joy for the upright at heart.' How
lovely that you are sowing light!"

- "A wonderful idea! I ordered
a Spectra sundial as an anniversary gift for my wife, and had
them include a special date line for our special day...and the
shadow actually did hit the line on our
anniversary! My wife thought I was so
clever :-)"
- Jack, Florida
-
-
- "The dial looks very handsome...something
beautiful and out of the ordinary. The spectrum line is a knockout!
My Spectra will always be one of my most treasured possessions.
You have made a family
heirloom which will be passed down
- and probably fought
over long after I am gone I think."
- Tony, England

-
- "The Spectra sundial is truly
a work of art. It is well made, solid as a rock, and elegant
with its cut glass edges. It is perfectly calculated to tell
my local time and I look forward to watching the shadow progress
down the dial throughout the coming year."
- Steve, New Hampshire

- "I ordered a Spectra sundial
from Artisan Industrials and it is very nice. Classically elegant
and precise, custom made with my location printed right on it.
It throws a lovely rainbow whenever we can get the sun to co-operate.
Very good quality, hand crafted, professional. Sits perfectly
in my South facing window, and I am surely the only kid on my
block to have one."
Dawn, Ohio

- "When I first came across the
Artisan Industrials web page, I was impressed with the quality,
character and inspirational content of the site. As I read about
the Spectra Sundial, I knew this beautifully crafted sundial
would be the perfect gift for a friend of mine. I asked the artist
and designer, Jim Tallman, to inscribe the sundial with the well-loved
line of a poem. He was considerate of my request and continued
to be wonderful throughout the process, keeping me informed of
progress on the project and notifying me on the day the package
was shipped. Upon receiving the sundial, my friend was exceptionally
pleased with the unique gift.
- My thanks to Jim Tallman and Artisan
Industrials for creating a product
- of such lasting beauty and elegance."
- Kathleen, Indiana

- "After searching for the 'perfect'
gift to present our teacher, the students of the Kripalu Teacher
Training found the site for the Spectra Sundial and we knew that
our search ended there.
- Working with the artist Jim Tallman
was an exceptional experience. He kept in communication throughout
the creation of the Spectra and shipped it to us in a timely
manner. Its simple elegance combined with the scientific complexities
and the love it was created with made the Spectra Sundial the
perfect gift for our teacher. He said
that his yoga center has the perfect exposure for its display
of prisms.....imagine what an inspiring yoga class that will
be!!
- Thank you Jim for your contribution
in making
- our graduation a truly spectacular
occasion!"
