Maintenance and Care Instructions

Caring for your Chime

This chime is varnished for lasting beauty and outdoor use. Small cracks are normal in bamboo. To avoid large cracks and fading, do not hang in direct sunlight or near heaters. The chime should be brought indoors in severely cold winter weather. To clean, simply wipe with a damp cloth.

Hanging your Chimes for the Best Musical Performance

Asli Arts by Woodstock chimes are known the world over for the purity and beauty of their sound. These chimes are designed to produce beautiful music from even the slightest breeze, but if you'd like to hear yours more often, here are a few ideas:

Hang your chime directly from the O ring or loop at the top of the chime. Don't extend the top string of the chime by adding chain or string. This may cause the entire chime to swing, when in fact only the center string and clapper should move.
Hang your chime where the wind can reach it from as many directions as possible. An open corner is ideal when hanging the chime from a building.
Experiment with hanging your chime at different heights. Wind velocity tends to increase with higher elevation.
Avoid hanging your chime within two feet of a wall or too close to plants, furniture and anything that might obstruct or divert the breeze. If you have a screened-in porch, you may find that even the screens will impede the breeze enough to prevent your chime from ringing.
Try hanging your chime in different locations during different times of the year. The prevailing winds change seasonally.
