The tuning of the Bells
of Paradise Chimes is based on an ancient system known as "just
intonation". This means that the frequencies at which the different
tubes vibrate are related to one another by simple whole-number ratios.
Tones that are related in this way produce the purest, most beautiful
musical intervals.
Made of aluminum tubes which are specially
suspended - the line is attached to a small metal rod set inside the
upper part of each tube - these chimes resonate longer than other wind
chimes.
There are no wooden components: the striker is of a
black polymer which will not degrade, the ring from which the chimes are
suspended is of metal as is the wind catcher. The line is of rot-proof
black nylon.
Contempory in design, elegant in its simplicity, this chime is sure to to enhance any outdoor environment with its shiny silver chimes.
All Woodstock products are beautifully boxed and carry a one year warranty.
