Multi-Color African Glass Wind Chime - Patio and Garden Decor - Housewarming, Retirement Gift
- Description
Bring a burst of color to your patio or garden with this vibrant glass wind chime, handcrafted with 72 small glass beads made by the Krobo tribe in Ghana, Africa. These artisans support their community by melting crushed glass in underground kilns. The beads are slightly translucent and beautifully irregular, adding unique charm and character.
Anchored by two pieces transparent dark aqua blue glass from my studio, this wind chime is a cheerful, uplifting accent for any outdoor space.
A thoughtful gift for housewarmings, retirements, birthdays, or memorials—or a special treat for your own backyard oasis.

FAQ
What is the best way to hang a Cinjo wind chime?
The wind chimes are a simple design - one long wire covered in beads with glass pieces at each end. The middle of the wire is draped over a nail or hook or from a small tree branch. The glass pieces clink together to create a subtle sound while the beads reflect the sunlight. You want the pieces of glass to be close enough to generate the sound.
Do the glass wind chimes break?
Glass items are fragile and can break. Please handle with care. Try to avoid hanging wind chimes very close to stationary objects that could be hit by the glass and cause breakage. A protected area is best. However, fused glass is very strong and can hold up to most situations without breaking or chipping if hung with room to move in wind.
Do you use recycled packaging?
While our first priority is to ensure your order arrives undamaged, we do use recycled boxes and packaging materials whenever possible. If you would prefer we not do this, please let us know.
What is "fused glass"?
Fused glass is glass that has been heat formed in a kiln. Also known as "warm glass" or "kiln-formed glass".
