Koshi Chimes

The Koshi chime is an authentic musical instrument, an original creation of high quality. Hand made in our workshop at the foot of the Pyrenean mountains, each chime is the result of meticulous craftsmanship.

Eight chords are welded with silver into the metal plate at the base of the resonance tube. Precise tuning creates a play 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.

The sound of the chimes is most wonderful for children. But for security reasons they should be kept out of reach of children under three years old.

If you like to add a little twinkle to your Koshi Chime you can add a B5 or B9 Kalimba we have tuned to match your chime. The Kalimbas and Koshi Chimes are marked with Symbols and Color so you can identify them in your set.
