Wind Chimes, Adding Beauty to Your Home and Yard
The wind chimes have evolved considerably since its ancient times and rattling sounds. The set of tuned bells in the wind today produce a melody as inviting, sweet and clear as the song sung by pristine waters spread over a waterfall on one side of the mountain on a hot summer day. But this did not happen by accident. More than an enhancement to home decoration and garden decoration, a quality wind chime is made using a scientific approach to achieve the best possible sound. The lengths and placements of the pipes might seem random. In fact, their placement is conditional, since each pipe will vibrate more when hit by the clapper.
The areas of the pipe called “anti-nodes” resonate with a sound clearer, more real. These particular points are found at each end of the pipe, as well as in the middle. The placement of the string is also important. The string holes are drilled where the pipe vibrates less. This is known as the “node of vibration.”
This striking wind chime hanging from a tree limb to complete the decoration of the garden and landscape design is more than just something nice. It is a high precision instrument that happily plays the song of nature. It is through, for Feng Shui, the invisible but tangible presence of universal energy flowing throughout our environment.
Wind chimes sound better when tuned to the pentatonic scale, in the same way that the black keys on a piano. This type of scale is more convenient to generate random notes pleasant but, like those generated by the wind. The type of material used is also important. Some materials provide a clearer sound than others. For decorative purposes, the pipes in some wind chimes are made to look like copper. Some clappers are made of metal, some wood or other material to produce variations in sound, different from each other.
In addition to harmonious sounds generated by the strong current of air, wood and metal used in the production of wind chimes enhances their connection to Feng Shui philosophy and the importance of the elements.
