Default Glue wood to glass?

I need to glue a 1.5" diameter section of glass (hourglass) to a piece of cherry (slightly recessed). The small hour glass (6" long) will hang from the wood section.



I'm thinking epoxy but worry about any wood movement. Granted a 1.5" section of cherry will only expand/contract by a worst case scenario of 1/16".



Would a more flexible glue be better? Which one?


Silicone adhesive/sealant seems to have done the trick nicely.

Thank you everyone for your suggestions.
