What does it mean and what is its history?

The history of the hourglass begins in 1500 BC. It is believed that the first versions appeared in Egypt. Subsequent ones were developed in Ancient Greece. The name hourglass, from the Greek κλεψύδρα, comes from the Greek word κλέπτω, meaning stealthy escape. In the oldest models, water was poured between connected glass bulbs instead of sand. This method of measuring time was used until the Middle Ages.

The hourglass as a synonym for the passage of time

Hourglasses, in both their original and current forms, are considered the first clocks. In Ancient Rome, from around 52 AD, they served as timekeepers during court proceedings. In the mid-19th century AD, they were used, for example, to measure time in chess tournaments. Today, models from brands like Dalvey and Italfama are luxurious decorative elements for homes and offices.
