Horace Slughorn's hourglass is a clock made of two glass vessels connected with a narrow passage, with a green fluid flowing through inside and serpent design outside (represent him as a Slytherin member and former head of the house). Slughorn already owned this object by the time that teenage Tom Riddle is studying at Hogwarts. The sand runs accordingly to the quality of the conversation: if stimulating, the sand runs slowly.
