The color is beautiful however, the sand gets stuck and doesn’t finish draining/flowing into the bottom glass piece. I don’t honestly know if it’s the sand or the hourglass timer but they were both purchased from justhourglasses.com. So that is disappointing.
Figuring gravity is unlikely to fail I thought I'd try an hourglass after two different clocks have failed within 6 months of purchase. The brown/beige natural color is nice, there is a bit of gold glitter in the sand, which is a nice touch. The 50 min time measure, at least in the product I received, seems right on. Its nicer than noisy timer, and more novel than a clock for timing my client sessions. I'm a bit afraid that I may break the glass, I think it'll survive being knocked over, not sure it'll survive much of a drop. Fully satisfied, thank you!
I've written a mystery manuscript (coming in 2027), The Listener, about a retired investigative reporter who sits and listens to people and uses an hourglass to control the length of the sessions (his penance). I searched for an hourglass that matched my vision - and this cherry hourglass is perfect. The quality, style and care with which it was delivered were first rate. A great value. It sits on my desk and I turn it each time I write.
Arrived slightly crooked, but I was able to gently adjust it in the padded setting. It's very elegant.
We used this hourglass for our wedding and it is beautiful and high quality. It is a special keepsake that we will keep for the rest of our lives.
Absolutely beautiful craftsmanship. The hourglass feels incredibly well made and thoughtfully designed, and it arrived packaged with great care. The included instructions were clear and helpful as well. You can tell a lot of attention went into every detail. I purchased this for one of my memorial reliquaries and it’s perfect — I’ll definitely be buying more in the future.
Got this for my mom as a gift because she wanted the days of our lives hourglass. This is perfect!! Its a nice size,quality and looks just like the picture!!
I use this to brush my teeth and not only is it helping my dental hygiene, but it's a beautiful addition to the bathroom. very well made, sturdy and works perfect. highly suggest!
This hourglass is SO SO SO Beautiful in person! Unbelievably beautiful. I grew up watching Wimdledon and this hourglass reminded me of Wimbledon and home :) I have it placed on my bookshelves along with my most prized possessions. Thank you!
Great quality. Love the roundness of the glass, unlike other cheaper ones online which have elongated bodies. Very happy with my purchase. I got the walnut with light brown sand.
Quality piece but too big for what I need. I need a smaller 30 minute glass timer to fit within a brass holder
A fun addition to my exercise routine. I use it to time the different stretches that I do. The glass material and the rounded shape are pleasant to handle and I like the black side, which is more visible than a lighter color.
I purchased my hourglass sand ceremony on Etsy! It is absolutely beautiful! Would highly recommend!
My hourglass is beautiful and accurate. A lovely little thing to ming my time while brushing my teeth!
Nice job...
Good size, nice minimalist aesthetic. Good value. My order was well packaged and shipped quickly.
Beautifully crafted design woodwork by artistRussell M Larsen, as well as almost precision glasswork.
It's got brass, it's got glass, it's got sand. 10/10 no notes.
Our order had to be resent, but it was great~ It tells me how long I need to wait after my husband's medication before he can eat.
