Hour-glass
This reproduction antique ship's glass is a 15-minute glass filled with ochre sand. The ampoules are blown in one piece and have pointed ends. The stand is made from oak wood, stained black, with four turned supports. This glass is virtually identical to AST0103 and AST0104, and similar to AST0105, AST0106 and AST0107. All of these were made by the same manufacturer.
