"The Indigo Rain" - Shibori Wrapped Ring & Cascading Shell Hand Bell
How to play: Hold the handle or support and gently shake by hand to make the seed shells sound. This is a hand-played percussion piece; wind will not activate it.
The sound of the ocean, captured in a chime. A Shibori-style blue wrapped ring suspends a waterfall of natural shells that sound like falling rain.
The Story: Summoning the Waves
Rain on the roof, or waves on the shore? "The Indigo Rain" sits somewhere between the two — a piece made to be heard as much as seen.
The large handle ring is hand-wrapped in blue and white tie-dye fabric, inspired by the sea and sky. Suspended from it are multiple strands of hollow, dried fruit shells. When gently shaken by hand, they collide to create a deep, immersive, water-like rushing sound. Hung in a room or on a porch, it brings a cool, coastal calm to the space.
Key Features
- Shibori-Style Ring: The large circular handle is wrapped in blue and white fabric/thread with a tie-dye pattern, giving it a fresh, bohemian coastal look.
- Immersive Rain Sound: With significantly more shells than our standard rattles, this piece produces a loud, rich, and continuous "waterfall" sound when moved.
- Cascading Shell Layers: A dense arrangement of dark and light natural pods hangs in layers, creating a visually satisfying texture.
- Wood Bead Details: The strings connect to the ring through natural wooden tubes, a clean, geometric transition into the organic flow.
- Versatile Decor: Works as a wall mobile, a porch hand bell, or a handheld instrument for sound baths.

Please Note

- Hand-Wrapped: The blue and white pattern on the ring is created by hand, so the dye pattern will vary on each piece.
