The name “Cabernet Sauvignon” refers to both the grapes and the wines they produce, which are regarded as some of the world’s finest, displaying a depth of complexity and richness of flavor - this is the inspiration for “The Cabernet”, from Heirloom Hourglass. The earthy-red nuances of the solid mahogany rope shaped pillars cast a beautiful glow – this classic hardwood is used to produce the finest furnishings and décor, and it only improves with age. Just as fine wines utilize solid oak barrels for proper aging and storage, the bases of the “The Cabernet” hourglass are made using solid oak that pairs wonderfully with the mahogany rope pillars. Solid pewter ship wheel closures complete this hourglass, paying homage to the ocean breezes that are a signature of the world’s foremost winemaking appellations and their temperate coastal climates. Perfect for Wine Country Weddings, Vow Renewals, and the wine lover on your gift list, “The Cabernet” can easily be filled with your own sands or soils from a special beach or vineyard. Customize this hourglass with our solid pewter grape bunch closures or heart shaped closures. A collection kit with all you need for gathering your own sands and vineyard soils and filling your hourglass is included. Because of your purchase, we donate $1.00 to a good cause.
