Small bronze and silver bells. In search of suitable bells for Chime, we went on a magical journey of authentic antiques. We did not want to record factory-made bells, but hand-cast replicas of original 17th and 18th century bells.
This collection features bells from Dutch grandfather clocks, French pendulum clocks, comtoise clocks, table clocks, carriage clocks and large clock bells. We simply adore the sound of these bells, and each one is unique. They are made of bronze and silver alloy and are hand-tuned to preserve the vintage character. The clarity of these bells surpasses those typically used in orchestras, and we are proud to have rebuilt and recorded them.
