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 powder-coated matt black chimes.
All Woodstock products are beautifully boxed and carry a one year warranty.
