Timeless Hourglass

Philosophical object

This Timeless Hourglass is turned in the magnificent wood of cypress. It demonstrates a wealth of detailed growth rings that make it a masterful whole through the art of woodturning. It is accompanied by a solid cherry wood base and it offers two different sides to turn it over like an hourglass.

The hourglass is timeless because it contains no sand so there is no time. It represents the present moment in eternity.
