Woodstock designed the chimes of Neptune Bronze for superior musical performance. They hand-tuned it to a universal, pentatonic (five-note) scale. As a result, it acts in concert with the wind to create random patterns of wonderful sound. Harmonizes beautifully with all the other Encore Collection windchimes.

Polaris is part of three different constellations. It is the end of the handle in The Little Dipper and also part of Ursa Minor (the smaller bear). It is also the “jewel” in a semicircle of stars that make up a constellation called “The Engagement Ring”. Because Polaris appears to be motionless, it is used in navigation and is associated with a steadfast nature.
Bells have been used throughout the ages to accompany dance, to provide comfort and to warn of possible danger. The Chinese were the first to control the pitch or note of a bell, making it possible for them to play tunes. Soon bells were being used to accompany worship. On New Year’s Eve the bells in Buddhist temples are rung 108 times, once for each of the 108 worldly desires.
In the East bells have become very important and are often decorated with significant symbols. For centuries, tuned bells have been suspended in homes and temples to ward off evil and attract good luck and prosperity. Woodstock Temple Bells are inspired by these ancient bells and work in harmony with the wind to create gentle, soothing tones.
