Customers praised this handcrafted birdseye maple hourglass for its "beautiful" craftsmanship and "old world" quality. The glass is handblown, sand flows smoothly, and timing is generally accurate. Some noted the price is high for an hourglass, though justified by the artisan quality. One customer observed slight timing variation at high altitude.

Beautiful, well-made...clearly love went into creating this hourglass!!! Just have to note I gave it as a gift to my sister, a therapist in Denver, and the 50 min hourglass ran out in 48 min, 17 sec. Not too much of a problem, she can wrap up her sessions a bit early. ;). Just wondering if the lower air pressure at higher altitudes causes the sand to run more quickly??
Very nice service. Arrived in a reasonable amount of time, well-packaged and in good condition. The photos and description online are accurate. The price is a bit high for an hour-glass, but if you appreciate beauty, it's worth it. I'm pretty sure you won't get one this nice at a lower price. Signed by the artist. Beautifully handmade craftsmanship. American Birdseye Maple and English handblown glass. The natural finish shows off the wood's beautiful pattern and mesmerizing lustre. The sand matches nicely, a "salt-n-pepper" desert-sand colour. The sand flows smoothly and doesn't get stuck. I timed it for about 15 minutes and 45 seconds. For a luxury hour-glass, I recommend this company.
Great work on the quality wood and the glass is perfect.
Accurate aswell.
10/10
I purchased this beautiful little hourglass as part of a larger project. It is perfect and lovely.
We received ours carefully packaged and with a nice note about the artist. Really beautiful and flawless. Get one - you won't regret!
The reason I would get a 8 out of 10 because the amount that we paid for the hourglass was to much for how little the hourglass was but it was made really good and the wood looked amazing...
Great quality superb product. Perfect for using in our wedding for the hourglass ceremony! Much higher quality than the more common websites advertising the wedding ceremony hourglasses.
Superb
Made our wedding so special! Thank you for putting together such a great product!
Quick turn around!
Extra fine quality.
Helpful and efficient.
This was a gift for someone for whom I have worked for 25+ years. I presented it to him just yesterday at a meeting of our entire staff. It made a huge impression on everyone - especially the recipient. The hourglass is so beautiful that I actually had a hard time giving it away! The craftsmanship is superb and it just makes me happy to look at it! Additionally the engraved plate is beautifully done.
My hourglass arrived in perfect condition within two weeks of my placing the order. The customer service rep took her time with me on the phone answered all of my questions and communicated with me via email to let me know that my order was in process. This is an amazing company!
This hourglass is beautifully crafted and accurate to within 5 seconds of 5 minutes!
Excellent service.
Very fine quality of birdseye maple and finish

The pictures don't do the quality justice. It truly is old world craftsmanship.
Very good.
