Apple designer creates bonkers $12,000 hourglass
Found on CNet News on Thursday, 25 May 2017
Hodinkee announced the hourglass earlier this week with a fair amount of pomp, noting,"...the Hourglass is a multi-sensory experience that cannot be communicated in words." And, oh yes, it will cost you $12,000 (£9,260, AU$16,000) to buy one of the 100 hourglasses.
The hourglass also thumbs its nose at common sand and is filled instead with 1,249,996 "nanoballs" made from stainless steel with a copper coating.
It would be so ridiculous if there wouldn't be enough hipster fanbois who hand over the cash to get this hourglass which costs just a few dollars to produce; but hey, it's Apple!
