SKU: HWLC
Description

This handcrafted steel bell has deep resonance and plays beautifully in the wind.

With its bold tone and design, this handcrafted, wind-activated bell functions nicely as a welcome bell at any entrance to your home or garden. We tone our bells to unite two important ways the instrument vibrates. One is the sound of the bell itself, and the other is the hollow chamber inside the bell that acts like an organ pipe. The slots on the sides of the bell are the secret to this unique coupling. The result is a rich sound with much depth and beauty. This steel bell has been coated with a handsome, durable finish so that you can enjoy it for years. Hang your Heroic Windbell in a breezy spot and let it play in the wind.

    Beautiful resonate sound

    This is an amazing designed chime when rung has a beautiful tone that reminds me of Tibet.

    Thank you, Mark! We're so glad you’re enjoying the deep, resonant tones of the Heroic Windbell. It’s wonderful to hear that its sound transports you to a place as peaceful and spiritual as Tibet. We appreciate your kind words and hope it continues to bring you moments of calm and reflection.

    Heavy, and very silent.

    The heaviness of this bell is not a problem for me, but it may contribute to the fact that even in some heavier winds and breezes, this Heroic Windbell seldom makes a peep. I love the look of the windbell, but I have repeatedly moved it to different places outside my home, trying to find places with enough of a breeze to make this thing make itself known. All my other Woodstock Chimes are happily making their music, but this windbell still stays silent… even with the oversized “windcatcher” it comes with. So I love the look, but very disappointed in its’ continued silence.

    Dear Michael,

    Thank you for taking the time to share your honest feedback. We’re glad to hear you love the look of the Heroic Windbell, but we’re truly sorry it hasn’t performed as you’d hoped. We understand how disappointing it must be to enjoy the appearance but miss out on the sound you were expecting.

    The Heroic Windbell is designed to produce deep, resonant tones, but because of its weight, it does require stronger, more consistent winds than some of our lighter chimes. Placement can make a big difference, and we’d be happy to offer some tips or suggestions to help you get the most from it.

    Please feel free to reach out to our customer care team — we’d love the opportunity to help you enjoy both the beauty and the sound of your windbell.

    Thank you again for your candid review and for being a Woodstock Chimes customer.

    Quality Controls

    The welding job needs to be better. When hung, the bell is not level. This is solely due to the welds and improper quality controls.

    Massive bell, little sound

    Beautiful wind bell, but you’re going to have to work at hanging it in a spot where it gets enough wind to actually ring. Wish Woodstock would include advice on its site about best hanging practices.

    Dear Douglas,

    Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts, your video, and your 3-star review of the Heroic Windbell - Large, Antique Copper.

    We’re glad to hear you find it beautiful, though we’re sorry to hear it hasn’t rung as much as you hoped. You’re right — because of its substantial size and weight, it does need a breezy location to really sing. Your suggestion to include more guidance on the best hanging practices is an excellent one, and we’ll be sure to pass it along to our team.

    If you’d like, we’re happy to offer some tips directly—feel free to reach out and we can help you find the perfect spot for your bell to shine.

    We appreciate your honest feedback and the chance to improve!

    Warm regards,
    The Woodstock Chimes Team

    I love the deep sound

    The only thing I don’t like is the cord used to hold it together . It comes untied a lot. I have finally taken to using coated wire to hold it together, both inside and on the piece hanging down.

    Thank you for your feedback, Sandra. We’re so glad to hear you love the deep, resonant sound of the Heroic Windbell – Large, Antique Copper. That tone is something we’re especially proud of.

    We're sorry to hear about the issue with the cord coming untied and appreciate you sharing your solution with the coated wire—that’s helpful insight, and we’ll be sure to pass your comments along to our product team. Your input helps us improve, and we truly value your support.
