These capiz chimes bring us Joy ~ they are made up of a stunning array of shapes and colors. They sparkle in the light, and when placed outside, create a gentle tinkling of the shells. The supply comes from two fishing villages in Java, where shell artisans sustainably harvest the shells and shape them. All parts of the capiz (jingle oyster) are used; the meat for food, the shell for handicraft, and the shell waste for fertilizer. Only full-grown shells are picked from the kelp beds, providing more space and food source for the young ones to grow. The chimes are made with care in a fair trade, in-house workshop in Bali.
