Looking for some unique outdoor & patio decorations? Our Capiz Shell Leaf Wind Chimes are perfect for you! These unique wind chimes are handmade by artisans in Indonesia out of capiz shells, meaning that they sparkle in the light, and, when placed outside, create a gentle tinkling of the shells. This chime features silver, blue, and purple shades to refresh your home décor or patio!
All of our capiz shell chimes and strands come from a fishing village in Java, where our shell artisans sustainably harvest the shells and shape them. All parts of the capiz (jingle oyster) are used; the meat is used for food, the main part of the shell for handicraft, and the shell waste for fertilizer. Only full-grown shells are picked from the kelp beds, where they grow, which provides more space and food source for the young ones to grow.

This is just a beautiful piece of handmade art that is so worth the expenditure. I had to replace some of my decor after an allergic event and had to try to find some no fabric inert options to make the home feel beautiful and warm. This lifts my spirit after losing some of the touches of home. Sometimes when I get up in the middle of the night to use the restroom it will ever so lightly chime in the most soothing way almost as if to keep you in a dream state. I have it next to my lady Guadeloupe and St Francis table and it’s just a beautiful almost living breathing fingerprint that adds to the space. It’s my favorite and also most affordable thing I’ve gotten to fill in the space and I’m thinking of getting g a second one for the porch.
I was proud to give this to my mother for Mother's Day. Each piece is beautiful, they sound great, and they are held on well to the base. Would buy again!
