Obsidian Wind Chimes

Listen to the sounds of the obsidian wind chimes. The obsidian "needles" occur naturally as volcanic glass in Northern California where I mine them. In the first video, the wind chime on the left is made with driftwood and the one on the right is made with copper that I hand forged in the shape of a leaf. It was very windy here today so you can really hear their glassy sound.

Hello Jim,

Well, it has taken me a bit of time but I have found you once again. I have purchased several of your chimes over the yeras and they remain my most favorite both in sound and beauty.

Do you sell online any longer? If so please post a link or email if you can cl-decker@hotmail.com
