Koshi Chimes

This listing is for the Koshi Chime of you choice.

We also offer the full set of 4, with OR without the Chimefornia Chime Stand, Songbird Chime Stand, or Moksha Stand.

PLEASE NOTE: You can put Koshi Chimes outside, BUT like all wooden objects, if you do that, it is best to treat them regularly with a protective oil such as colorless Tung or Teak oil. It is best if they are not directly exposed to the rain. If you didn’t pay heed to this warning, and who already have mold, it can be cleaned with a little diluted bleach.

Koshi Chimes have four melodic tunings inspired by the elements. When sounding together the chimes roll in rich, harmonious overtones reminiscent of the elements’ coexistence in the sublunary sphere.

A high quality and original creation, the Koshi Chime is an authentic musical instrument…played by the wind. (But yes, you can certainly use your hand to get out the magnificent tones inside as well.)

Handcrafted with precision at the foot of the Pyrenees, Koshi Chimes are designed with eight notes. The notes are metal pieces welded into a plate at the base of the resonating tube. The tube itself is made of thin layers of bamboo veneer treated with natural oils. The veneer is stronger than natural bamboo and makes for a much sturdier chime, without losing the acoustic qualities bamboo is famous for.

Koshi Chi

This listing comes with your choice of Koshi Chimes and optional additional accessories. Check out all of the add-on options!
Koshi Chimes have four melodic tunings inspired by the elements: Terra, Aqua, Aria, and Ignis. When sounding together, the chimes roll in rich, harmonious overtones reminiscent of the elements’ coexistence in the sublunary sphere. Picture pure elemental balance, bliss, yin and yang in sonic form.
Each chime is made from eight metal tines attached to a metal base inside of a bamboo resonating tube. They were developed by Kabir, inventor of the Shanti Chime. After 20 years of experience creating and experimenting with chimes, he developed a new tuning technique which yielded deep tones, rich harmonics, and full overtones. These chimes are perfect for sound baths and sound healers.
