The Eclipse from Heirloom Hourglass is crafted with care from curly maple bases and American black walnut rope shaped pillars. Curly maple is a rare hardwood that is highly sought after for its unique, wavy grain pattern that is found in only 1 out of every 500 trees. The grain of this beautiful wood seems almost three dimensional and holographic when it catches the light, and it matches wonderfully with the richly finished black walnut pillars. The Eclipse is completed with two solid pewter ship wheel closures that allow you to easily fill your hourglass from either side with your own real beach sand. Customize this or any Heirloom Hourglass by selecting from a wide variety of closures found on our website, or include a personalized plate with names, dates, and more. The Eclipse is a classic addition to any home it graces, and all it needs is your sands or soils from your vacation, Wedding, Anniversary, or any special place or event flowing through it. A collection kit is included. This unique sand ceremony hourglass is the perfect addition to a wedding unity sand ceremony, family unity ceremony, or vow renewal ceremony. It is the perfect alternative to the unity candle for an outdoor wedding sand ceremony, destination beach wedding sand ceremony, or an inside wedding where a candle cannot be lit.  It also makes the perfect heartfelt gift for any occasion.
