Looks smashing on the shelf in my home office. The black sand is a nice touch against the metal frame. Only reason it’s not five stars is that I’d have liked a bit more weight to the base, but it hasn’t wobbled yet.

ordered from here again and no hassle, as usual. Third thing I’ve bought from you lot and this one fits right in with the rest. Takes just over the time I expected, but it’s grand to watch. Nice finish.

Bought it for my son’s 9th birthday and he’s barely left it alone. He kept flipping it over and asking why the sand never seems to clump, so we ended up reading about how the grains funnel through that tiny gap one at a time. Now it sits on his desk and he times his homework with it. Lovely thing, and the two cones really do look like they’re floating.

Got this for my grandson Callum. His little face lit up when he turned it over. Lovely and simple. Brilliant.
Tom Gallagher –
spot on. The symmetry is what sold me, it really does look like two separate cones passing sand between them. Sits perfectly with the exposed brick and black metal in our flat. Chuffed.

Chuffed to bits with the Large Hourglass. Gave it to my grandson and he was mesmerised by the sand trickling down. A cracking addition to his little science collection.

What a delight this hourglass is! It sits proudly in my study, looking rather stylish with its industrial vibe. The symmetry and exchange of black sand create quite the visual spectacle—almost feels like watching time itself in motion. Really adds character to the room.
