Crafting Handmade Hourglasses
With timers built into phones, the need for hourglasses has declined. Kaneko Glass Craft is home to one of only two craftsmen who make hourglasses in Japan. ProcessX shows us how Isao Kaneko makes each hourglass, blowing the glass forms and filling them with the right amount of fine, hand-sifted sand. Turn on captions for an explanation of each step.
