Beautiful capiz shell windchimes in an inverted arch shape. Hangs from a hook. These sound beautiful, not overpowering as some windchimes can be. The color is perfect for fall and autumn with browns and oranges. Dimensions: 12.75 x 30” (32.5 x 76.5cm). These chimes look great on their own or hung together with another one of different color for added dimension. They sparkle in the light, and when placed outside, create a gentle tinkling of the shells. Our capiz supply comes from a fishing village in Java, where our shell artisans sustainably harvest the shells and shape them. All parts of the capiz (jingle oyster) are used; the meat is used for food, the main part of the shell for handicraft, and the shell waste for fertilizer. Only full-grown shells are picked from the kelp beds, where they grow, which provides more space and food source for the young ones to grow. All our Capiz chimes are made with care in our fair trade, in-house workshop in Bali.
