About the Hourglass black filled icon
A classic hourglass with flat rectangular caps top and bottom, a pinched waist, and sand shown as a filled dome in the lower chamber with a hollow scoop left above. It communicates both elapsed and remaining time, which suits countdown timers, loading and processing states, booking deadlines, productivity apps and project schedule slides.
The frame is symmetrical around the narrow neck, and the two sand shapes invert each other so the passage of time reads at a glance. Pair it with calendar, stopwatch and alarm clock icons. For loading states, animate a slow rotation rather than adding more detail.
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.
