Makes Even Unpleasant Tasks Fun
Date:05/22/2013
I have the 15 minute timer and enjoy it so much I've purchased a few more as gifts. Need to fold laundry? Race the green clock and limit yourself to 15 minutes. It's fun for my kids too, but it should probably only be handled by gentle hands. You'll have a 15-minute mess if the glass breaks.

Hour and 15 minutes
Date:02/22/2013
I received these items as a gift. I had had them on my favorites list for a long time so you can imagine how excited i was :) The two sizes look great nestled next to each other. I always receive compliments on them. They're beautiful and have came in handy actually. BUY THEM!! you wont regret it :)

great buy
Date:03/04/2013
i love this hourglass, and I actually timed it out and it is pretty close to an hour! I have it on my windowsill and it is always a piece that people will come up to and flip over, so I like that.

great accessory
Date:12/05/2012
i had been eyeing these hourglasses for a long time on line and finally bought them. i'm thrilled with the purchase. they add a nice pop of color in the room, but are still understated. i use the hour glass often to time my reading/studying. i haven't found the 15 minute one as useful, but am glad i bought the pair. the small one was inexpensive and they look great as a pair.

Green Envy...
Date:12/31/2012
That's what everyone will have, when they see these gems. I was tickled pink to finally see this in person.
I think I've had this on "my list" for two years possibly! I'm glad this is a CB2 staple, which made them still available when I was finally ready to purchase.
Shipping was fast, again fast! They shipped on Friday and it was at my door on Saturday, definitely unexpected. By the way, I got the set, hour and 15-min, I think it would be a shame to only get one without the other.
This was my first CB2 purchase, with service and quality like this, I will definitely become a long term customer.

Too much time online?
Date:09/10/2012
Do you spend too much time online? If you're like me and need a little reminder to get up from behind that screen, this beautiful hourglass is just the thing. It gives you just under and hour to browse, blog or buy and it does so with great style!

Perfect Dual Purpose Purchase
Date:09/02/2012
Purchased both the hour & 15 mn hour glasses. Works as both "timers" & accent pieces. Great for all decor types. The chartreuse green is a fresh color--perfect amount of "pop". The only reason I gave a 4 instead of 5, the glass on the 15 mn cracked & broke after a slight nudge topple over. Glass is thinner than the hour size. Will still keep the piece for now---put the broken side @ the back. Great addition for style & color!

Fun hourglass
Date:08/26/2012
Yes, it's really a 53-minute glass, but it's still a fun way to force me to focus when working in my home office.

Exactly what I've been looking for
Date:09/10/2012
I have a problem with motivating myself to clean- so I make a bargain with myself that I'll only have to do it for 15 minutes, flip it over, and go! Plus, it just looks awesome. I love the green. :)

Fantastic Statement!
Date:07/10/2012
I have had these hour glasses for a few years and have enjoyed them thorougly. They look fantastic in my office, and are a joking reminder to keep our meetings on time. One was unfortunately broken by someone in the office -- so I quickly rushed to replace it. I cannot imagine my space without the pair. Thank you for continuing to carry such a great product!

Fun, pretty, useful
Date:06/26/2012
Got this as a grad gift for my son (no symbolism intended) and he really likes it. In fact, it is still sitting in the living room because everyone likes it. The bright green sand is pretty and it is soothing to see the sand drop.

timeless timekeeper
Date:03/10/2012
This is a great and functional accessory for my desk. I love that it functions as a timekeeper but gives you a visual reminder without the stress of a digital alarm sound.

pretty desktop accents
Date:03/09/2012
very stylish desktop accents, would prefer them to be either heavier or of more durable material given the price, but still a nice touch to any tabletop.

Date:03/09/2012
This is a great attention grabber. Anyone who sees it always asks me where I got it. I also like the bright green sand inside, it really pops.

Great way to keep time
Date:03/09/2012
We bought these hourglasses to go with the dropped numbers clock. The greens go perfectly together. These look great and are actually very practical - when I'm having work meetings, I use them to time discussions (we have 30 minutes to brainstorm and then must come to a decision).

Excellent value
Date:03/09/2012
Great style - bright yet almost neutral green sand. Takes you away from our digital obsession to one of the earliest technologies. Soothing.
