The entire piece is constructed from glass, including the frame and the central chamber. This creates a seamless, minimalist aesthetic that allows the terracotta ombre finish to stand out.
While the hourglass is made of glass and should be handled with care, it is designed as a sturdy desktop accessory. It is best placed on a stable surface where it won't be easily knocked over.
Yes, it arrives in a sturdy, custom-printed box that coordinates with the terracotta theme. It is ready to be wrapped or gifted as-is.
