Hourglass

Historically used to track the passage of time, hourglasses have taken on a more symbolic role in the past few years. This design, for instance, takes on a sleek silhouette that is best suited for accenting modern spaces. Crafted from glass, this piece features two bulbs connected by a narrow neck that allows the sand to travel at a trickling pace. Measuring 8'' H x 3'' W x 6'' D, it's best suited for writing desks, side tables, or other small spaces.
