Sangiri Wind Chime
Cradled in simplicity, this wind chime boasts a circular form, its clapper mirroring the shape of a coin. As the Echizen washi paper flutters in a soft breeze, the stoneware clapper sings a tune warm and tender. Not only does the wind bell provide a melodic and pleasant sound, but it also doubles as a stylish interior decor.
This wind bell is graced with the sangiri pattern, capturing the essence of fire’s dance with clay. Its textured surface and the unique natural glaze emerge from the kiln’s flames, showcasing Bizen ware’s distinct blend of earth and fire. “San” hints at the kiln’s wall, where ash accumulates transforming pieces into shades of gray or blackish brown, depending on their exposure to fire and ash. Each firing yields distinct patterns, making every wind bell a one-of-a-kind art piece.
