Let a little colour move with the breeze. This rainbow leaf wind chime brings a soft, shell-like flutter to a balcony, garden nook or bright window, with translucent leaf drops shifting through purple, yellow, blue, green, red and orange as they turn in the light. Soft movement, gentle sound The hanging leaf shapes overlap and separate as the air moves, creating a light, delicate chime rather than a heavy metallic ring. Colour is part of the pleasure: each leaf catches the light differently, so the piece feels lively even when the breeze is slight. The circular top gives the chime a calm, balanced shape, with the leaves falling in a loose, natural cluster beneath it. It suits places where you will notice small changes: beside a window, under a covered porch, or in a quiet corner of the garden. The sound is weather-led and unforced, more like a soft rustle and tap than a tuned musical scale. Rainbow leaves and natural texture The design pairs coloured leaf drops with a natural-looking top and twisted hanging cord. The mix of bright translucent colour and earthy texture gives it a relaxed, handmade character, somewhere between garden ornament and small piece of hanging art. Driftwood craft from Indonesia This driftwood chime is handmade in Indonesia, with materials including raffia, pinewood beads, driftwood and Capiz shell. Capiz is valued in decorative chimes for its lightness and soft, papery sound when pieces touch in the wind. Natural materials can vary in tone and finish, which is part of the charm of a handmade piece. Where to hang it Hang it from the cord in a spot with gentle air movement, leaving the leaves free to turn and brush against one another. A sheltered position is best for natural materials, especially away from prolonged heavy rain, strong wind or freezing conditions. Dust lightly with a dry cloth and let it dry fully if it becomes damp. A chime with symbolic presence Wind chimes appear in many cultures as threshold objects, placed where air, sound and movement meet. In some home and garden traditions, they are associated with protection, welcome and the shifting of stagnant feeling in a space. Here, the symbolism stays simple: a small hanging ritual of colour and sound, marking a doorway, balcony or window as somewhere cared for. Size and details Product type: wind chime.

No. Capiz-style leaf chimes have a softer, lighter sound than metal tube chimes, with a delicate tap and flutter when the pieces move. Can it stay outside all year? It is best kept in a sheltered outdoor spot or brought indoors during harsh weather. Natural materials are beautiful, but they can be affected by prolonged wet, strong wind and frost. Is it tuned to musical notes? The sound comes from the leaf drops moving and touching in the breeze, so it is gentle and naturally irregular.
