Hourglass Kelvin & Hughes

The way the sand flows from the top bulb to the bottom is incredibly smooth and steady, almost hypnotic to watch. It’s a solid piece of decor that feels substantial without being bulky, and the precision of the timing adds a nice touch.

The brass and glass construction feels solid and substantial on my desk. The sand takes exactly one hour to pass, which makes it perfect for timing my study sessions.

I love how the finely ground sand flows so smoothly through the glass, making each 30-minute cycle feel perfectly measured and precise. The brass base gives it a nice weight on my desk without being too bulky.
