WU173 : Hourglass

Description: There is evidence of the use of hourglasses as early as the 12th-13th centuries. They were used in churches, on ships and in the production of various materials. In the 21st century, they lost their practicality almost entirely and their main function is decorative, as a souvenir. The hourglass can be seen as a non-standard and original item that symbolizes our ability to be independent of time, deciding for ourselves how to build our lives. The statuette is made precisely from polyresin with a metal coating and with attention to every detail. Dimensions of the statuette: 21 cm x 7 cm x 18 cm.
