A swirl of purple, this beautiful capiz chime has a sweet, soft tone.
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.
My chimes are gorgeous! The sun shines thru perfectly as they sway in the breeze and start their twinkling
I absolutely LOVE these purple shell chimes. My grandmotherʻs friend used to make these many moons ago, so they are nostalgic to me. They have a great soothing sound and are a piece of art.
These chimes are beautiful to look at and to listen to. They make sitting out on our deck, such a delight!
I have two of the Chimes of Neptune, one on the front porch and one on the back porch. I like to leave my chimes hanging up all the time no matter how hard the Texas wind here blows so about once every couple years I have to restring the chime on the front porch where the wind does its worst. The string is the same as the original string it had when I got the chimes new. I also kept the instructions how to string the chime so I do it right. The string is easy to use and looks perfect when I'm done restringing my chime. Of course the string can only take so much abuse from our wind and usually it will last about a year or year and a half before breaking. I really appreciate that you sell replacement parts for your chimes, instructions and have a phone number to call if I have any problems.
