Fiesta Capiz Chimes
Regular price $32.00
This gorgeous capiz chime has vibrant colors, a beautiful sound and creates a beautiful environment in whatever place it graces. It measures 7.5" x 19.5".
These capiz shells come from a fishing village in Java, where Fair Trade shell artisans sustainably harvest and shape them. All parts of the capiz (jingle oyster) are used; the meat is used for food, the main part of the shell for handicraft, and the shell waste for fertilizer. Only full-grown shells are picked from the kelp beds, where they grow, which provides more space and food source for the young ones to grow.
Handmade in Bali.
