If an hourglass is aimed to measure a longer period, then the whole diameter must be smaller, while the amount of sand must be increased. For example, a basic desktop hourglass usually is made to measure a short period, such as a few minutes. Generally, these hourglasses are 7 cm in length, 4 cm in depth, and 10 cm in height. Since it is small, it should be used less sand to be able to measure short periods.
