Hourglass Sand Timer

Sand instead of a screen. The glass runs for a set stretch of time, so a task gets a beginning and an end without a phone lighting up in between.

• Borosilicate glass, hand blown: each piece is mouth blown rather than machine moulded, so it holds up to temperature changes better than ordinary glass and is less prone to cracking.
• Three run times: five minutes for tea or a breathing pause, thirty for focused work, sixty for a longer stretch.
• Size follows the time: the five minute glass stands 12 cm for a bedside table, the sixty minute one reaches 23.5 cm and holds a shelf on its own.
• Silent by design: no tick and no alarm, so it can sit on a desk during a call or beside a bed at night.
• Five colours: blue, gold, white, pink and black, so a set of three can match or deliberately differ.

Take one for a desk, or all three sizes together for a stepped grouping on a shelf.
