Purpose and audience

The Howard Miller 30 Minute Hourglass Sand Timer in a copper finish provides a visual way to measure half-hour intervals. It suits office workers, students and anyone who wants a simple tool to structure focused work or study sessions without digital distractions.

Timing capacity and limits

The timer runs for 30 minutes per turn and meets an industry accuracy standard of ±6 minutes. It covers a single half-hour block; longer tasks require multiple flips, and it cannot measure shorter or precise intervals.

Physical traits in use

The glass and plastic construction stands 4 by 4 by 8 inches and weighs very little, so it sits steadily on a desk or shelf. No power, sound or moving parts are involved, making it completely silent and maintenance-free during normal use.

Questions about this item

Will the 30 minute timer fit on a shelf with my existing desk clock?

The hourglass measures 4 by 4 by 8 inches, so it occupies a small footprint that sits easily beside most desk clocks.

How do I know the sand flow is accurate after I set it up?

Flip the glass and watch the black sand run for the full 30 minutes; the manufacturer rates the timing to a ±5 % tolerance.

Does the copper-finish stand come assembled or do I need extra parts?

The unit arrives as a single piece with the glass timer mounted in the black wooden stand — nothing else is required.
