Made of strips of bamboo wrapped around a mold, the result is uniquely elegant and remarkably weather resistant.

Spun bamboo is created using a technique that is over one thousand years old yet the resulting design is far from old fashioned. In fact, it's a wonderfully contemporary look that adds a touch of style and color to our garden. Spun bamboo is created by shaping thin strips of pliable bamboo around molds and drying them to shape. Pieces are then hand-sanded to a smooth, silky finish and multiple layers of weather-resistant varnish are applied to achieve a hard, glossy finish. Each piece is uniquely elegant, reflecting the textures of bamboo in an attractive spiral pattern.

Bamboo gives our Asli Arts chimes a mellow, musical and enchanting sound unlike any other chime. Our chimes are made with pride by craftsmen of Bali and Vietnam. Each piece is individually carved, tuned and painted. Non-endangered wood, coconut shell, recycled metal and bamboo are used to make these instruments of nature. In addition, each chime is hand-tuned by musicians. Testing the sound of each tube, our musician-craftsmen create chimes that sound as good as they look. By hand-tuning each tube and selecting a range of sizes, each chime produces a unique melody of tones.

Our chimes are sealed with varnish. To maintain their beauty we suggest varnishing each season and protecting during harsh weather. Small cracks are normal in bamboo. To avoid large cracks and fading, do not hang in direct sunlight or near heaters.

To clean, wipe with a damp cloth.

Overall length 31.5" with 6 tubes. Kiwi Green stained bamboo top and wind catcher make this a colorful backyard edition.
