{"product_id":"antique-brass-hourglass","title":"Antique Brass Hourglass","description":"\u003cp\u003eA traditional sand timer in a turned brass frame with an antiqued finish, holding either violet or white sand between two blown glass bulbs. The 15 minute version stands about 18cm high on a 7cm base; the 30 minute runs a little larger at 21 by 8cm. Both are heavy enough in the hand to feel like instruments rather than ornaments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA sand timer is a genuinely useful thing on a desk in a way a digital one is not: it measures a block of work without a screen, a notification or a sound at the end of it, and the falling sand gives a visible sense of how much of the block is left. The violet sand is the more striking of the two; the white reads quieter and more traditional.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe glass bulbs and the brass frame are both durable, but this is still glass on a hard base and it should be placed where it cannot be swept off a desk edge. Keep it out of reach of small children and pets, and never attempt to open a bulb. Polish the brass with a dry cloth; the antiqued finish will lift if a metal cleaner is used on it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTurned brass frame with antiqued finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlown glass bulbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e15 minute (approx. 18 x 7cm) or 30 minute (approx. 21 x 8cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eViolet or white sand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDry polish only - do not use metal cleaner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeep out of reach of children and pets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Lockhone","offers":[{"title":"White Sand \/ 15 Minutes","offer_id":58865788191104,"sku":"LH-BWL-0214","price":79.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"White Sand \/ 30 Minutes","offer_id":58865788223872,"sku":"LH-BWL-0214-2","price":79.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Violet Sand \/ 15 Minutes","offer_id":58865788256640,"sku":"LH-BWL-0214-3","price":79.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Violet Sand \/ 30 Minutes","offer_id":58865788289408,"sku":"LH-BWL-0214-4","price":79.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0990\/4737\/5232\/files\/4_a7508e89-bfaa-49f6-a98b-087a339ae0fb.png?v=1788589886","url":"https:\/\/lockhone.com\/products\/antique-brass-hourglass","provider":"Lockhone","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
