Therapeutic Chimes

The ‘Shanti’ chime
The mark  » Shanti «  , as well as the design of the chime, was recorded officially in 1992 in the name of its two creators working narrowly together; a co-operation which ended in 2009. Since, the chime continues to exist in the same design ‘ Shanti’origin , and is manufactured maintaining by the TEAM  craftsmen of the workshop, in a range of new colors and tonalities.
Therapeutic Windchimes

The “Zaphir” chime is an authentic musical instrument, an original creation of high quality. Hand made in the Pyrenees Mountains, each chime is the result of meticulous craftsmanship.

Eight chords are welded with silver into the metal plate at the base of the 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.

Zaphir chimes come in several tunings, each with its specific magic timbre, and in seven basic colours with a choice of different shades.

Move the chime gently holding it by its cord: the crystalline, relaxing sound may leave you in quiet wonder. Outside, sheltered from rain, as it plays with the wind it will carry you away on an unexpected melody.

All chimes are the same size. The length of the tube is 125mm (5 inches); the diameter is 65mm (2,5 inches).

You can choose your wind chime from seven basic colours, with a choice of different shades (if available).

5 wind chimes, each has its own sound. The chimes are vibration sounds that bring Peace and Harmony in the hearts. For us these chimes are just as powerful as the Crystal Singing Bowls, but in a different way. Easy healing tools, much appreciated by therapists, it’s a tool for all.

The ‘koshi’ chime
The ‘Koshi’ chime is an authentic musical instrument, an original creation of high quality. Hand made at the foot of the Pyrenees Mountains, each chime is the result of meticulous craftsmanship.

Eight chords are welded with silver into the metal plate at the base of the 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.

Koshi chimes come in four tunings. Each has a specific magic timbre and can be played harmoniously with all others. The tube, made in our workshop, consists of bamboo veneer treated with natural oil.

Move the chime gently holding it by its cord: the crystalline, relaxing sound may leave you in quiet wonder. Outside, as it plays with the wind it will carry you away on an unexpected melody.

I have used bamboo veneer as it is much stronger than the natural bamboo. A true “resonance tube” of a high acoustic quality is made with thin layers of bamboo. This and a new tuning technique that I developed give the sound even more depth and enrich the harmonics.

The diameter of the tube is 6,3 cm and the height is 16,5 cm., 4cm longer than the former Shantis.

The Koshi chimes should be good for outdoors use. However, like all wooden objects, they must be regularly treated with protective oil. I have to admit that for now, without time experience I can’t yet give any guarantee.
The sound of the chimes is most wonderful for children. But for security reasons they should not be given in hands of children under three years old.
