Moving Sand Art Picture, Round Glass Frame with Flowing Sandscape, 8 Colours, Black or White Frame, 18 or 30 cm

Turn It Over, and the Mountains Start Again

Between two panes of glass sits a layer of fine coloured sand and a few drops of water. Flip the frame, set it back on its stand, and the sand begins to fall: first in thin streams, then in ridges and dunes that build into a landscape over the next few minutes. Flip it again tomorrow and it draws a different one.

The Thing on the Desk Everyone Picks Up

It sits beside the monitor, on the hall console or on the coffee table, and people cannot leave it alone. Watching sand settle is slow in a way that screens are not; a minute of it between two calls does more than another scroll. Guests turn it over without asking. Children watch it to the end.

Eight Colours, Two Frames, Two Sizes

Blue, orange, black, green, purple, red, pink or emerald sand, each with pale layers that fold through it as it falls, in a round black or white frame on a weighted base. The 18 cm size suits a desk or bedside; the 30 cm size holds its own on a sideboard, a mantel or a bookcase.

No Batteries, Nothing to Break Down

There is no motor and no power. Sand, water and air do all the work, and the sealed glass keeps them in for years. If the sand ever falls too fast or too slow, a small air valve at the back of the frame lets you adjust the pressure in a few seconds. Wipe the glass, and it is new again.
