This wind bell is manufactured using traditional casting techniques in Takaoka City, Toyama Prefecture. You can appreciate the clear sound which can only be made by a brass wind bell.

The concept of design is to express the beauty of the material, even when looking at it from below. The brass is coated with urethane (transparent coating). To accentuate the beauty of the material we make each object one at a time on a turning wheel.

Given a hairline finish, the piece expresses a perfect harmony of modern design and traditional technique.

Care Instructions

-Although the object receives a colour fixing finish, the color may slightly fade over time.
