Hourglass with wooden frame and glass bulb convinces with its simple, symmetrical and at the same time aesthetic appearance. Three wooden rods enclose the two drop-shaped glass bodies, in which the sand runs from the upper to the lower glass bulb. The glass of the two flasks reflects in the light.
Functions and use: The beautifully designed hourglass can be used to boil eggs or to measure smaller intervals of time. As one of the oldest forms of a clock, it is still used in saunas, kitchens and other places. Sand slowly trickles through the connecting piece from the upper to the lower glass bulb. When all the sand has trickled through, simply turn the hourglass upside down and another time interval of the same length begins. Last but not least, watching the trickling sand has a calming effect, but in art and psychology it also stands for transience.
