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.
The chime is so prayerful, it gives a feeling of reverence.
Sometimes the best things really do come in small packages. I needed a token gift for a friend going through some tough times. She talks about the angels that watch over her, so I knew an angel would be the perfect gift. Most that I found just weren’t pretty and were much too big. This one is tiny, sweet, delicate and just perfect for hanging anywhere as a reminder of the good stuff in life! I ordered 3 angels and they arrived packaged securely (they're so delicate, I was afraid they would break) and unbroken. The gift was a hit and it now hangs in my friend’s garden, watching over all who come by. Price was very reasonable and the website was easy to navigate. Lovely!
Our first crystal guardian angel was a parting gift from a hospital in CT. We dangled it from a car rearview mirror. A wing of the angel was broken in a car accident - but the driver walked off unscratched. Naturally, we, being people of science and cold statistical logic, immediately ordered a new angel - and for good measure, an angel for each family member.
The crystal guardian angels are beautiful! Store service, incl. shipping, is also great.
I hope we never have to order new angels - but we surely will recommend them to friends!
