Create unique sculptures using this magnetic hour glass.

Place it onto the copper coloured base stand and watch the iron filings fall from one end of the hour glass to the other. The base also contains a magnet so that as the filings drop they become magnetised, standing on end to create totally unique and beautiful sculptures each time the hour glass is turned.
