An antique wooden textile spool by Roberts & Hirst Ltd. of Halifax, adapted into a compact hourglass. The glass insert is housed within the original spool body, framed by its metal-rimmed base and rounded top. The piece retains its warm patina and balanced form, showing the subtle character of age. Timed at approximately three minutes and forty-five seconds, it offers both function and sculptural presence.
