Description

This water timer hourglass holds its fine white sand inside a clear cylinder, standing upright between three slim rods with a shiny silver finish. A round silver disc caps the top, set with three small ball finials, and a matching round base rests on three neat ball feet. Together they give the piece the tidy, engineered look of a traditional instrument. The sand runs through the narrow waist of the hourglass in the upper part of the cylinder. It stands 17.1cm tall, 8.1cm wide and 7.6cm deep, compact enough for a crowded desk and tall enough to catch the eye on a shelf.

We think it belongs wherever a moment of stillness is welcome. On a desk in a home office or study it becomes a quiet reminder to pause between tasks. On a bookshelf, mantelpiece or bedside table it adds a bright gleam of silver among your favourite things. It suits a hallway console or a living room side table just as well, and the clear cylinder keeps it light to the eye in a small space. As a gift it has the appeal of something both handsome to look at and calming to watch, the kind of piece people like to keep close at hand.

The three rods hold the cylinder upright between the top disc and the base. The piece is freestanding, so it needs no wall, hook or bracket. The small ball feet lift the base just clear of the surface beneath it. To keep the shiny silver finish bright, dust it with a soft dry cloth. Wipe the clear cylinder gently with a soft cloth rather than anything abrasive. For styling, we like it on its own at the corner of a desk. It also looks well beside silver photo frames on a mantelpiece, where its polished rods catch the light from a nearby window or lamp.
