It's difficult to see in the picture, and was a surprise when they arrived, but there is a smaller, black, second set of chimes inside the circle of the bigger silver chimes. They really sound lovely, and are a great price.

This Chime is a bargain, I almost bought it elsewhere for $20.00 more, but Amazon is the place to look for any thing! This has a lovely melody, I have other chimes and this has the nicest sound of all. I love it! You will too.

This is very nicely made and the sound from it is magical. It is about 18 inches long, so a little smaller than I expected. But just like the modern small surround sound speakers, IT IS LOUD with a moderate breeze. I really don't know how anyone could not think this item is anything but wonderful!

I gave this chime as a gift. I own 2 other Woodstock chimes and am a big fan of the brand. I was surprised to learn that this chime actually has two sets of chimes: Larger chimes that produce deeper notes on the outside and smaller chimes that produce higher tones on the inside. Very cool! And it sounds wonderful!

Regarding Durability

I have had issues with one of my Woodstock chimes falling apart. The chimes are suspended from the base by a nylon rope that is threaded through two holes in each chime. Eventually the metal chime would wear down and cut through the nylon rope causing the chime to fall to the ground.

Woodstock is now putting rubber grommets inside the hanging holes which should prevent the hanging strings from being cut in this manner.

This is one of my favorites made by the WOodstock company, and it's mostly because of the sound. Those long silver tubes give a substantial sound in the middle of the registry: YOu can get more tingly, higher pitched chimes, or more bass-y baritones, but the moderate pitch here makes this an excellent all-purpose chime, perfect for the chime novice, or as a gift for someone whose preferences you don't know.

The silver chimes are set off against a very dark brown wooden (almost black) upper base and hanging ornament (see picture), along with four tiny chimes of the same material forming a ring inside the main silver chimes. These small chimes make a more delicate sound, nicely complimenting the fuller, deeper chimes. Finally, the Pachelbels have an incredible sustain-after they start ringing the after-tones resonate in a fairly uniform pitch for quite a long time. While some Woodstock chimes look warmer (e.g., the Mozart has greenish chimes and lighter, warmer wood), the classic, neutral look, and clean lines make this very versatile.

Can't say enough about how much I (and my husband) enjoy this windchime. I purchasd it last week at my favorite local Hallmark store. Since I had a $10 Extra Rewards Cash-Off coupon from Hallmark, that brought the price down from $40 to $30 (I should own stock in this company since I am in and out of their store so often). I had been wanting a windchime that really sounded like something beautiful rather than the tinny (almost nonexistent) sound I got from less expensive ones. This filled the bill and then some. We have it hanging on our back deck, which is covered with an awning at this time of year.

I like it so much that I am ordering another one today as a gift for a neighbor's surprise birthday party. She has a beautiful flower garden and pond in her yard, lives a couple doors away, so I'm anxious to see if we can strike up some melodious sounds betwen us since both windchimes will be in our backyards (I hope) and not too far from one another. I'm ordering this one from Amazon, which is offering the best price I've found (other than my local purchase with coupon), with free shipping besides.

I can't believe that anyone would not enjoy the sounds emanating from this glorious windchime. Don't know if its Pachelbel or Canon D, just know I love it!!Woodstock Pachelbel Canon Chime

a nice sound. very comforting. don't know that it sound like pachebel but it does not sound clangy like some others.

it is nice to hear, you can tell what the breeze outside it like and it never sounds harsh.

This item is for a wedding gift...But I have one as well...and I love it. The sounds are so peaceful and I love to sit on the patio and just mellow out....

Woodstock chimes are the best and these are no exception. I highly recommend these to anyone interested in wonderful sounding wind chimes.

These chimes are very easy on the ear--I gave them as a gift to a person who still comments about their lovely sound--they are not clangy and loud, but soft and mellow.
