Oigen Wind Chime Kuro Neko

Cast Iron Wind Chime

Traditional hanging bell "tsurigane" wind chime by Oigen brings a sense of tranquility to your home. The Kuro Neko wind chime was designed by one of the floor staff at  Oigen to represent a happy sleeping cat.

In Japan wind chimes are often hung to bring a sense of coolness, serenity and connection with nature, especially during hot summers. They're also believed to bring good luck.

Included in the package is 1 tanzaku (paper wind catcher). If it's for yourself feel free to make a wish or prayer and write this on the tanzaku. If you are buying it as a gift feel free to put a personalised message or poem on the tanzaku. Example: "Hoping this Japanese wind chime will bring you happiness and peace" and add you name.

Hung in apartments, homes, gardens and of course temples they are a popular part of Japanese culture.

The timing of the wind chime sounding is unpredictable and fleeting much like the "mono no aware" Japanese concept.
