Looks gorgeous; just like the opening of “The Days of Our Lives”.
Prompt delivery. No hassle.
Beautiful
It was more yellow than gold, and don’t have much glitter in it.
Great coloring and wood grain. No issues with order or shipping.
Very pleased as always with the product and quality.
I am enjoying my new egg timer. They are a bit over cooked after 60 minutes but it sure is nice watching the time go by.
The hourglass is so wonderful and nice!
I would prefer to keep it myself, but I have to give it away for a special person.
Very pleased with the product the quality is as expected I would gladly buy again from this company Thank you
The Hourglass is Beautiful. Very emotional piece of art
There should be a little larger passage through the bulbs so it actually works
And some sort of small helpful instructions of ratio would be great. Other than that pretty self explanatory
Then it would be a 5star
I am delighted with the quality, function, and aesthetic of these hourglasses! My first hourglass was a gift (the 15-minute, off-focus timer with blue sand – also available from JustHourglasses.com). This was what demonstrated the peaceful simplicity an hourglass provides. I wanted something more timeless in appearance, so I acquired the 15-minute Pirate Bobbin Hourglass w/ Black sand (right) and the 20-minute Antique Bobbin Sand Timer with white sand (left). I use these interchangeably daily for journaling, planning, and rest periods.
Prior to purchase, I had several specific and detailed questions regarding provenance, fit, and finish. Shannon took the time to quickly answer them all, including making her own inquiry to the tumbler, bobbin, and spindle supplier to verify their origins.
Fit and finish is exactly what I had hoped for! I was very concerned that the randomness of the raw materials would make for a twisted, warped, and frankly embarrassing final product once in hand. That wasn’t the case at all! There is some warp and unevenness in the bobbin ends – after all, they are antique castaways and were never intended to be reused some day in this manner. However, their minor imperfections are not distracting and do not diminish the appearance or function in any way.
They look magnificent and are a delight to use! I ran multiple time tests, and the 15-minute Pirate Bobbin Hourglass runs an average of 15:10 (+1%, 99% accuracy) and the 20-minute Antique Bobbin Hourglass runs an average of 20:17 (+2%, 98% accuracy).

I got this for my husband's birthday, and he absolutely loved it. Looks just like the picture. It came securely packaged.
The hourglass came quickly and carefully packaged! We are using this lovely piece for our Sand Ceremony in Oct. 2024. The instructions were clear and easy to understand. I was worried the piece would be too small, but it is just the right size and will be a stunning centrepiece for our wedding.
I had trouble finding sand for the hourglass online, but I just found out that this website also carries sand, so we will purchase from here!! Thank you for this beautiful piece, it will be treasured.
This is a very well made hourglass globe. Just what I needed for my project; I ordered 7 of them. Thank you!
Extremely emotional is the best way to put it. When I see the cremains of my parents in such a warm beautiful piece of art is what I will call this. Thank you for the artistry you have put into this urn.
I wanted a simple hourglass that wasn't boring, this one is perfect. The design is sleek and intriguing, but not ornate enough to be a distraction. The sand in mine timed out to 5 minutes and 16 seconds, which was more accurate than expected.
Came in perfect condition. I absolutely love. I filled it with black sand from Iceland. Now I have a part of my family’s home. Thank you!
Excellent product and service. I'll be coming back.
Bought this for my upcoming wedding and the pictures don't do it justice. This is a beautiful hourglass
