Description

These really are the most gorgeous sounding chimes we have come across for a while
They are compact but effective with four different tunings available (click the download tab to the right for sound samples) The four chimes also blend well together so can be played in combinations for a more complex but still highly harmonious sound
The Koshi chime is an authentic musical instrument, an original creation of high quality.
Hand made in a workshop at the foot of the Pyrenean mountains, each chime is the result of meticulous craftsmanship.
Eight chords are welded with silver into the metal plate at the base of the bamboo resonance tube.
Precise tuning creates a play of clear tones that is rich in overtones.
The overtones of the shorter chords gradually dominate and become fundamentals, thus forming a circular tone range.
Move the chime gently holding it by its cord: the crystalline relaxing sound is a delight
Suspended, it will play with the wind and carry you away in an unexpected melody
The Koshi chimes can be used outdoors, but should be hung underneath an overhang to keep them dry. Like all wooden objects, they must be regularly treated with a protective oil (teak oil)
The bamboo cylinder is 16 x 6cm
