This charming vintage brass hourglass feels like a small relic from a more elegant age—crafted with weight, presence, and a touch of ceremony.
The warm, time‑softened brass holds a petite glass sand timer angled gracefully within its rings, while a faceted crystal finial crowns the top like a jewel catching the light.
At just 5 inches tall yet surprisingly substantial at 9.4 ounces, it has the satisfying heft of a well‑made desk piece.
The base carries its original CDS “Celebrating 30 Years” emblem, giving it the character of a commemorative corporate gift—something once presented with pride and meant to last.
The white sand drifts through the glass in roughly three minutes, offering a quiet, meditative pause. Whether displayed on a bookshelf, used as a desk companion, or added to a collection of brass curiosities, this little hourglass brings a sense of nostalgia, craftsmanship, and timeless charm.
A unique decorative piece with personality, history, and a beautifully romantic presence.
