Specifications
This was my first purchase with this company. The hourglass is very nice for the size. Although, the sand color is a very pale yellow.
My only complaint would be the packaging. I am all for reusing boxes and packaging material. The box I received was originally from Amazon. It contained this hourglass and other pieces in bubble wrap, another hourglass in a box, foam peanuts, and unfortunately, broken styrofoam.
However, opening a box filled with broken styrofoam meant there was not any way to remove the items, and contain all the tiny styrofoam balls within the box.
I did not realize I would have to allow extra time to clean up after opening a box. Plus, the styrofoam is very unsafe for small children and pets.

In an effort to reduce technology in my life, I bought this beautiful, accurate hourglass. It is accurate as well as lovely. It arrived well- package and swiftly.
Received within the correct timeframe as indicated. An extremely beautiful piece made with high quality. I was really happy to receive despite the heavy reasoning for ordering. Thank you for the piece.
My husband loved it.
Such a great item and does exactly what it says. Times for 1 minute. Do not hesitate to get yours, it's worth the money and so much better than the other timers that are on Amazon etc.
The team were really helpful for my delivery and will definitely be purchasing again in the future.
I had ordered a Bobbin barometer and added the sand timer because I thought it looked interesting. Not only is it interesting, but it far exceeded my expectations. The compass works correctly and the clock keeps perfect time. It is a great piece to add to my collection. I on the waiting list if one ever comes for sale again.
