The enchanting sound of this chime is the result of a special tuning using the “Golden Ratio.” This ratio, discovered by the ancient Greeks, can be found throughout nature. It takes the soft, sticky, natural resin of conifers millions of years to harden into an organic gemstone. Amber can vary from clear to opaque and comes in a variety of colors, as well as the soft golden color that we use in our Amber Chime. In ancient times, Amber was known as the “tears of the sun.” Our Amber Chime features a sun motif windcatcher, made of beautiful amber-colored stone.Over 30 years ago, Grammy award-winning musician and instrument designer Garry Kvistad created the first Woodstock Chime from an aluminum lawn chair he found in a landfill. Fascinated by the Scale of Olympos, a 7th century pentatonic scale that can’t be played on a modern piano, Garry cut and tuned the lawn chair tubes to the exact frequency of the ancient scale. The resulting Chimes of Olympos was the first Woodstock Chime and is still one of our best selling, musically-tuned windchimes. Garry and his wife Diane founded Woodstock Chimes in 1979 and still develop the chimes today. It remains a family-owned business in New York’s Hudson Valley.
