Here is another timeless, yet practical gift. There aren’t many things out there that you can honestly say have the exact same purpose that they did 900 years ago. Well the hour glass is one of them. This one comes in your choice of either black or white sand for only $25!?

Two things strike me. One, its good looks. Many hourglasses are encased in wood, and look like they need to be displayed in a mahogany library, right next to the old world globe and telescope. However, this one has a modern, all glass look that will always be in style and would look good anywhere. Second is its function. This hourglass times 50 minutes. As many uses as you can imagine. You can always have a 10 minute break every hour. Perfect for home office workers, or procrastinators. Remember, give him something fun. A clock serves the same purpose, but he’s more likely to use this! Click here for more information.
