Zaphir Shanti Wind Chimes: Crystalide

These therapeutic wind chimes are magic musical instruments, handmade by Atelier Zaphir Sarl The “Zaphir” chime is an authentic musical instrument and an original creation of high quality. Hand made in the Pyrenees Mountains in France, each chime is the result of meticulous craftsmanship. Every instrument has EIGHT chords that are welded with silver into the metal ring at the base of the resonance tube. Precise tuning creates a play of clear tones that are rich in overtones. The overtones of the shorter chords gradually dominate and become fundamentals, thus forming a circular tone range. With their harmonizing sound, these chimes are a wonderful tool for relaxation, yoga & meditation, Feng Shui, sound-sessions and other forms of therapy. The handy size of these instruments makes them easy to use and play. Move the chime gently holding it by its cord: the crystalline, relaxing sound may leave you in quiet wonder. If you hang it outside, make sure to shelter it from rain. As it plays with the wind, it will carry you away on an unexpected melody. Zaphir chimes come in several tunings, each with its specific magic timbre. The 5 tunings are named in relation to the 5 seasons (Feng Shui) CRYSTALIDE: G A B D A G B D - Spring SUNRAY: G#B C#E G#E A C# - Summer TWILIGHT: E G B C E G B C - Autum SUFI: F A D F A G A D - Intermediary Season BLUE MOON: D F A B C E A#C - Winter
