Heaven of Sound is authorized reseller for the Genuine Koshi bamboo wind chimes - Made in France guarranteed!
DO NOT BE FOOLED BY CHEAP ASIAN COUNTERFEITS!
There are currently illegal Asian copies of these chimes available in the U.S., even on marketplaces like Amazon, Walmart or Ebay. You will be disappointed. They have stolen the design and even some of the manufacturing photos from Koshi France, the designer and only authorized manufacturer of these chimes. The scammers are using inferior materials and methods of construction to produce them cheaply and stealing Koshi's good name to sell them to unsuspecting victims. These imitations are not worth your money. We know from several customers, who called us reporting damages and asking for help, but then had to admit that they have fallen victim to these counterfeits!
Buy only these Original Koshi chimes from France to get the true pure sweet sound and high quality to delight your heart. Do not give these cheaters your money.
The genuine French bamboo Koshi wind chime is an authentic musical instrument, an original creation of high quality - and we at Heaven of Sound carry only these authentic French Koshi chimes!
Hand made at the foot of the Pyrenees mountains in France, each chime is the result of meticulous craftsmanship. We are selling only the Genuine Original Koshi chimes, no shoddy imitations or Asian copies.
Eight precisely tuned metal rods (chimes) are welded with silver into the metal plate at the base of the resonance tube (made from bamboo veneer) to create a chord of clear tones that is rich in overtones. The overtones of the shorter chords gradually dominate and become fundamentals, thus forming a circular tone range.
Move the chime gently holding it by its cord: the crystalline relaxing sound may leave you in quiet wonder. Suspended, it will play with the wind and carry you away in an unexpected melody.
Koshi chimes are instruments with a subtle sweet sound, making them ideal instruments for indoors and for sound baths or sound treatments. But they are not comparable with tubular bell wind chimes or Vienna chimes, which have a more prominent 'louder' sound and can be used outdoors.
The French maker of these chimes says Koshi could be hung outside under an eave, but we recommend to use them only indoors, hanging them near a window. The breeze will waft the delicate sounds through your home – and they will be safe from weather and light fingered admirers.
Koshi measure about 6.5 x 16 cm (2-12 x 6-1/2 inches).
