This hand cast chimes is made with solid brass by Tibetan and Indian artisans in northern India. Each bell and element are individually sand-cast in solid Brass and carefully hand-tuned to ensure clarity of sound and tone. The charming sound is evocative of the famous temple bells of Tibet, melodic and unique compared to typical tube chimes. Comes with a hang tag that includes details about the 7 chakras and their meaning. Strung on a waxed cotton cord. OK to expose to full weather but will last a life time in a protected area.
