Vintage Brass Hourglass Sand Timer — Four-Post Frame & Gear Knobs — White Sand

A striking vintage brass hourglass sand timer with a handsome industrial-meets-nautical aesthetic. The hourglass is housed in a four-post cylindrical brass frame with a flat circular base and top plate, each corner post topped with a decorative gear-style knurled knob — a wonderful steampunk-adjacent detail. The blown glass bulbs are clear, and the sand is bright white, flowing cleanly through the narrow neck. The brass has developed a rich, warm aged patina throughout. A beautiful desk or shelf accent piece.
