Blue capiz shells catch the light as this coastal wind chime moves, turning a window, wall or sheltered garden corner into a gentler, sea-bright pause. A raffia-wrapped fish sits above the hanging strands, while the shells sway below with a soft, delicate sound. Shell sound and easy movement The chime has a light, subtle voice, shaped by thin shell drops moving against each other in the breeze. Its hanging strands move freely, so the piece feels alive even before you hear it. The blue shell discs bring a watery shimmer, especially where natural light can pass across them. Pale pinewood beads break up the blue, giving the strands a simple, beach-house rhythm. The fish form gives it a playful coastal presence without feeling overly decorative. Raffia, driftwood and blue shell detail The upper fish is wrapped in natural raffia, with a driftwood structure and open stringwork through the centre. Below it, blue capiz shells hang in loose vertical drops, separated by pale pinewood beads. The finish is natural and slightly irregular, with small variations in colour and shape that belong to the handmade character. Where to hang it Place it where air can move gently around it: near a sunny window, on a wall hook, or in a sheltered outdoor spot. Keep it away from heavy rain, strong wind and prolonged damp, as the natural fibres, wood and shells are best treated with care. Coastal craft from Indonesia Made in Indonesia, this piece sits within a long island craft language of shell, wood and woven natural fibres. Capiz shell is often chosen for decorative hanging pieces because it is light, luminous and softly translucent, giving movement and brightness without visual weight. Here, the fish shape keeps the mood relaxed and coastal, closer to a seaside keepsake than a formal garden chime. Size and details Approximate length: 50 to 55 cm. Weight: 112 g.
