Harmony Hollow
Wind chimes are created from either solid aluminum rods, solid brass rod, or brass tubing. The
wind chimes are available in different finishes, depending on the chime. Customers select the
brass character motifs to customize the
wind chimes, all of which have that unmistakable hand-made look. Generic motifs are offered such as the circle or triangle for a
wind vane, but most people seem to prefer more distinctive motifs, such as the hummingbird or kokopelli. All chimes come boxed.
The suspension holes drilled into the tubes and rods are located at nodal points, that area of a vibrating tube where there is no vibration. This way the cord does not dampen the sounds and the tubes don't slowly eat into the cord.
All of the tubes and rods on all our chimes are deburred to remove any sharp edges where the cord passes through the tube; this protects the cord. We also use non-slip knots, and then weld the knots together with a hot knife. With the many precautions we take, the cord becomes virtually indestructible. All chime cord is specially custom-made for Harmony Hollow, using an inert polypropylene that is totally resistant to mold, mildew, or rot. The cord is unaffected by acids, including acid rain, and uses just the right amount of ultraviolet inhibitor to prevent cracking from sunlight. There's also a strengthened core, with a tightly woven outer sheath for abrasion resistance.
