What Makes It Uncommon

Wait a Minute

When your busy mind needs quieting, take a minute to watch mesmerizing sand formations take shape inside Zach Borutski’s hourglass. The sand is actually granules of iron and the borosilicate hourglass rests on top of a live-edge butternut base, which contains two hidden neodymium magnets (sometimes called earth magnets). So when you flip the hourglass over, the granules fall into the lower chamber and take on all kinds of sculptural shapes for 60 meditative seconds. Display it on your mantel or bookshelf as an interactive objet d’art, or keep one on your desk for when you need a midday mindfulness break. Handmade in Ottawa.
