Indian Copper Coated, Forged Metal Bells and Wind Chimes

From India came these great bells and wind chimes made of copper with wooden inserts.  The artist Janmamad Salemamad Luhar had a wide variety of sizes and sounds.

I picked up a wind chime already hanging on the patio and a bell awaiting a hook.

"Janmamad makes the highly-polished and finely-tuned bells that hang in entranceways and are combined to make wind chimes and other forms of festive decoration.  Melodic, forged-metal bells and wind chimes are part of an ancient tradition in his community."
