Distressed Metal Hourglass

If you are anything like us, always on the hunt for new treasures, you will be HAPPY to see this amazing, vintage-inspired metal hourglass! This beauty has got it ALL and we couldn't wait to bring you more of your favorite steal!

This distressed metal hourglass brings to mind the legacy of timekeeping in the 1300s and brings whispers of past stories to the surface. They fill the air and surround any space they encounter with a timeless appeal. Hourglasses were very popular onboard ships, as they were the most dependable measurement of time while at sea. They were also commonly used in churches, homes and workplaces to measure sermons, cooking time, and time spent on breaks from labor.

We LOVE the beautiful metal finish, the size, and of course the intricate design that allows the hourglass to easily be set in any position. This metal hourglass would look simply beautiful in your home office spaces, study room, or even in your shelving unit atop a few books. It paints such a beautiful picture in our minds.
