This custom hourglass is handcrafted from solid fishtail oak grown in Australia. Dark reddish-brown in color with strong broad rays, this material is straight grained with a medium texture. Combined with glass bulbs hand-blown in England, this classic piece adds a striking accent to any room. And because of the limited supply of this wood, once it's gone this hourglass will be retired. Key Features Wood construction Fillable globe Specifications Offered in 2 sizes - 4"D x 6"H and 6"D x 10"H (size approximate as globes are handblown and frame built around them) Available fully assembled (as shown) or in kit form. Fully assembled have 5 or 15 minute timers in the 4x6 size, 60 or 50 minutes in the 6x10 size. Kits are available with two options: You assemble, no sand - for customers who want to add their own sand (i.e. two different colors). Note: globe provided has a larger hole to accommodate different types of sand so timer accuracy is not ensured. You assemble, sand included - for customers who want a more accurate hourglass. The natural sand you see pictured comes with your kit (not available with all options). Personalization Add custom engraving to create a more personal tribute.
