Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)When I was a kid, my older brother had this fairly-large, oval-shaped moving sand picture-toy. It was so cool and I absolutely loved to play with it until it broke and eventually disappeared one day (probably got thrown out).
Ever since then, I've been searching for the same item and this product is the closest I've seen. I was thrilled when it arrived in the mail until I discovered that, unfortunately, it's a sad facsimile. It is much smaller than the one we had, the sand/liquid just don't flow the same way, and the sand is constantly getting stuck here and there. I recently came across one of these in our local thrift shop and noticed it had the same problem. I imagine the former owner probably donated it for that reason.
I guess I was spoiled by the quality of the original version we had years ago. I sure wish I could find it somewhere again. As far as this item is concerned, all I can say is that, sadly, they just don't make things the way they used to.

Moving Sand Art Black and white sand in a viscous colored fluid.The sand and fluid are between 5-1/2" wide x 3-1/2" high panes of glass, framed on a gimbaled stand.Flip the panel and watch the sand swirl and eddy into endlessly new pictures of dunes, drifts, mountains or moonscapes, depending on your imagination and the pattern they form.The mix of black and white creates a definite third dimension to the images.They come in assorted colored plastic frames (our choice) and are pretty neat, as these things go.
