Bubinga-finish wood top and wind catcher. From the maker of Woodstock Chimes come the Encore Collection Copper Bells, inspired by ancient Chinese bells. For thousands of years, bells have been used to accompany worship and dance, to warn of danger, and to bring good luck and prosperity to those nearby.Encore Collection Copper Bells are a decorative focal point in the garden producing quiet and gentle tones. Our Bells are not tuned to a musical scale but they are crafted with the same care as Woodstock Windchimes to ensure their beautiful sound.More than 30 years ago, the first Woodstock Chime was created by founder and owner Garry Kvistad from an aluminum lawn chair he found in a landfill. As a professional musician and instrument designer, he was fascinated by the Scales of Olympos, a 7th century pentatonic scale that can’t be played on a modern piano. Garry had the idea to cut and tune the lawn chair tubes to the exact frequency of the ancient scale. The resulting Chimes of Olympos was the first Woodstock Chime and is still one of our bestselling windchimes. Garry and his wife Diane founded Woodstock Percussion, Inc. in 1979 and it remains a family-owned business in New York’s Hudson Valley.
