Elevate your focus with a piece of enduring, natural luxury: the "Carrara Timepiece" Hourglass, a foundational pillar of the Sand Sculptor Marble Decorative Hourglass Collection. This stunning timer breaks away from simple wood or metal frames, grounding your space in the cool, classic elegance of stone. It’s a genuine fusion of timeless function and high-end natural artistry.
Product Specifications & Luxury Materials
This is an object defined by its materials. The weight and unique patterning ensure every piece feels custom and substantial.
- Overall Materials: Hand-polished Marble (or a high-quality marble-effect composite) for the top and base, Gold-Toned Metal (likely a brass or zinc alloy) for the pillars, a clear Glass vessel, and fine Sand (appears white or light grey in the images).
- The Marble Finish: The frame features a beautiful white marble effect (reminiscent of Carrara marble) with soft, natural grey veining. This natural pattern ensures that no two hourglasses are exactly alike, giving you a truly unique decorative piece.
- Pillars & Contrast: Four slender gilded pillars suspend the glass core, providing a brilliant, warm contrast against the cool, minimalist marble base.
- Sand Run Time: (The time is not visible, but based on size, it is typically a 15, 30, or 60-minute timer). For best accuracy, please verify and insert your exact timing here (e.g., 30 minutes).
- Sand Color: Clean, Light Sand (White/Pale Grey), which creates a striking, pure contrast against the heavily patterned marble and gold accents.
- Dimensions: Approximately 4" W x 4" D x 9" H (a commanding, yet graceful tabletop size).
A Grounding Presence for Your Space
The "Carrara Timepiece" is more than a way to track minutes; it’s a physical anchor for your attention. The substantial weight of the marble base gives it a sense of permanence and quality, making it the perfect accessory for spaces demanding sophistication and calm.
- Executive Desk: A non-digital tool that encourages deep focus and mindful time allocation.
- Entryway or Console: Provides an instant touch of classic luxury and thoughtful design.
- High-End Shelf Décor: A beautiful addition to book collections or curated displays.
Let the slow, steady descent of the light sand against the solid, elegant marble base bring a calming rhythm to your busy day.
Shipping Policy
Shipping Policy
At Sand Sculptor, we treat the journey of your decorative hourglass with the same meticulous care that went into its creation. Our products are investments in timeless beauty, and we ensure they travel safely from our hands to yours. We’ve designed our shipping methods to balance speed, reliability, and security, allowing you to choose the pace that best suits your anticipation.
A Note on Our Focus: To maintain the highest quality control and consistency in delivery, Sand Sculptor currently ships exclusively to addresses within the United States (US). We pour all our focus into ensuring flawless service across the 50 states.
Processing Your Masterpiece
Before your hourglass begins its journey, we require a 1-3 business day processing period. This time allows our team to perform a final quality check on your selected piece and securely package your marble and glass item with exceptional care to protect against any transit surprises.
Our Shipping Options: Choosing Your Pace
Once your order is processed, you may choose from three distinct service levels to manage your delivery speed. Please remember: Delivery times are estimates from the moment the package leaves our facility, not from the time the order is placed.
- Standard Flow: This is the reliable, steady path, perfect for measured patience. You can expect your hourglass to arrive in approximately 5-8 business days. This service typically starts at around $14.99, with the final cost calculated at checkout based on the weight of the marble and your exact location.
- Expedited Cascade: For those who anticipate their delivery with slightly more urgency, this tier offers a quicker pace. Your item is expected to arrive within 3-4 business days. This faster service usually begins at a rate of $24.99.
- Priority Momentum: This is our fastest service for immediate beauty. Choosing this tier means your hourglass will reach you in just 1-2 business days after leaving our studio. Given the urgency and specialized handling, this service starts from $39.99.
Shipping costs for each service are calculated precisely at checkout based on the substantial weight of the marble and glass product and your specific delivery location within the US.

Conditions for Acceptance:

We understand that sometimes, the moment after a decision, a slight adjustment is needed. Therefore, we offer a 24-hour grace period immediately following your order placement for any modifications or cancellations.
- If you contact us within 24 hours of placing your order, we can usually accommodate changes or issue a full cancellation and refund before the processing phase begins.
