Outline hourglass with flat top and bottom caps and triangular sand shapes in both bulbs
About the Hourglass black filled icon
This hourglass icon shows a narrow-waisted glass body held between two flat rectangular caps, with a triangle of sand resting in the upper bulb and a matching mound filling the lower one. The curved sides pinch to a thin neck at the center. It signals waiting, elapsed time and deadlines, making it useful for loading and pending states, countdown banners, booking timers, quiz apps and project schedule slides.
Proportions are tall and symmetrical, so the two sand triangles mirror each other across the waist and stay distinct at small sizes. It sits well beside clock, stopwatch, calendar and alarm icons in the library. For animated loading states, rotate the whole shape 180 degrees rather than redrawing the sand.
This is the solid black filled version of the hourglass icon: a bold silhouette that reads clearly at 16-24 px and on dark or busy backgrounds, and prints well in one colour.
It downloads free as an SVG vector or transparent PNG in seven sizes, and the free online editor lets you recolor it, apply gold, silver, neon and gradient styles, add animation, or convert it to EPS, PDF and DXF.
