Early 20th Century French Hourglass Pedestal - 30"

This unusual table takes the bold form of a giant hourglass, giving it the presence of both furniture and curio. A circular wooden top and base in a dark stained finish are joined by three rope-twist wrought-iron uprights, enclosing large hand-blown glass bulbs filled with pale sand that still run for two minutes. The combination of dark wood, twisted iron, and clear glass creates a striking silhouette, while its timeworn surfaces add character and authenticity.

More than a functional pedestal or end table, this is a statement piece that draws the eye in any room. Use it as a sculptural side table, an entry pedestal, or even as a distinctive nightstand. Its eccentric hourglass form makes it a conversation starter, while its mix of natural textures pairs effortlessly with stone, plaster, or leather, adding depth and bold presence to both rustic and refined interiors.
