Product Description

Transport yourself to the tropics with a gentle lullaby reminscient of a wind-swept coconut palm grove. A gleaming 6" diameter half coconut shell - created from inner shell of a coconut husk subjected to a seven-level sanding process - tops this 35" hand-tuned bamboo chime by Asli Arts. Hand-made in Bali. Making Asli Arts Chimes - Every Asli Arts chime features the mellow, earth-inspired tones unique to resonating bamboo tubes. Each Asli Arts chime is hand-tuned by a trained artist-musician who whittles each tube to the perfect pitch, repeatedly tapping each bamboo tube as he carves until the sound is just right. Then our artisans select a range of tube sizes that when combined and touched by gentle breezes, create a deep resonating sound. Bamboo tubes emit notes based on size, large tubes produce lower tones and smaller tubes emit higher-pitched sounds. By hand-tuning each tube, then selecting a range of sizes, each Asli Arts chime produces a melody unique to itself. About Asli Arts - Asli Arts, a small woman-owned business, is committed to producing innovative and quality home and garden decor products utilizing sustainable and recycled materials and the creative talents of Southeast Asian artists.

I ordered these as a housewarming present. Nice mellow tones, but I wish it had a lower tone like the length suggests. They still sound wonderful and they arrived within 3 business days.

I was looking for a set of wooden chimes for a present and liked the way this one looked. It arrived on time and in great condition. The recipient of the gift loved the sound of the chimes.

When the bamboo windchimes came they were in a very large box wrapped badly with some bubble wrap. They looked as they were used as the chimes had many abrasions on the finish. They were returned.
