A tall, vertical wind chime with a large, glinting mirror at its centre — a Hamsa, or Hand of Fatima motif. The five bells together produce a quiet, delicate sound by a window or on a veranda, and the mirror's light scatters playfully whenever the sun reaches it.
What the Hamsa motif offers you
The Hamsa, also widely known as the Hand of Fatima, is in many cultures a symbol of protection and friendly presence — an open palm welcoming whoever enters the home. Here, a large mirror lifts the composition: the mirror's light sends small flashes onto the wall and into the gaze of those who pass, and gives a new shine each time as the sun rises and falls. The motif is complete both decoratively and symbolically — a piece that draws attention without becoming intrusive.
The sound and the visual presence
The five bells sound softly, rather sparingly — owing to the 65 cm tall, vertical structure, the sound is more restrained than that of a tightly arranged chime. This is ideal for those who prefer the sound as a quiet companion motif rather than a continuous tone. The elongated form fills a narrow vertical band on the wall or beside the window — offering quite a different proportion to the space than a horizontally arranged decoration.
Where the piece fits
- Inside a front door — a friendly greeting for whoever returns home
- By a window — the mirror reflects natural light into the room
- On a veranda or terrace — outdoors the breeze sounds the bells
- In a meditation corner — as a quiet visual centrepiece
Material and care
The bells and metal frame are made of iron, which also holds up to outdoor wear. Indoors it keeps its original appearance clean; outdoors, the fine patina that develops over time gives the piece character — the beauty of natural ageing thus becomes part of the look. Wipe the mirror occasionally with a soft, dry cloth to keep it clean. Avoid permanently wet or very damp environments.
