Two classic symbols of love and beauty combine to inspire The Orchid from Heirloom Hourglass. We use the finest natural rose quartz and pair it with classic black walnut rope shaped pillars to create an hourglass of love just for your Wedding Day, Anniversary, Vow Renewal, or other special occasion. When you fill The Orchid with sands from some special place or event, you will create a special keepsake of breathtaking beauty that will endure for generations to come. The rose quartz used for the making of this Heirloom Hourglass is the finest grade of semi precious gemstone selected for its perfect pink hue and natural beauty. We polish it to achieve a mirror like shine that showcases the quality of your heirloom wherever you display it in your home. The Orchid is completed with our solid pewter scroll closures on each side. These closures allow you to easily open and close your Heirloom Hourglass so you can fill it whenever you wish with your own real beach sand from some special location or with colored sands. The pewter scrolls can be engraved with your names, dates, and message. For the engraving service, please see our Personalization and Custom Closures section. A sand collection kit with certificate of authenticity is also included with this and every Heirloom Hourglass. 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.
