Bright and cheery, this chime adds a fun bit of color to the landscape.
Capiz are farmed in Indonesia and every bit is used. The pieces are carefully sorted, dried, sliced, shaped, sanded and dyed. The thin, flat translucent pieces of capiz provide a luminous color.
In the 1500s, capiz were used as windowpanes in houses; now they are used in all sorts of home decorations, including lampshades vases, and (of course) windchimes!
This product is handcrafted with pride by artisans in Bali, therefore sizes can vary.
I love the capiz chimes as not too loud on windy days in Western NY. The purple color is great and doesn't fade in the summer sun.
I bought it as a gift and the recipients loved everything about it.
I purchased this very item at Armstrong Garden, Newport Beach some 23 years ago for my own LA residence. This purchase is for a family Holiday gift for those who have enjoyed my chimes all these years.
They are quality chimes!
