This custom Signature Collection hourglass is handcrafted from solid chechen wood grown in Central America (limited supply). A beautiful wood with fine texture and small pores it is also very durable. The color is a golden light brown with darker stripes of blackish brown. Like all wood, chechen varies in graining and color - no two are alike. Combined with glass bulbs hand-blown in England, this classic piece is stunning.
As with all wood each piece will vary slightly in graining and color making each hourglass unique. Hourglasses are handmade so sizes are approximate.
