Woodstock DCB14 Encore Collection Bronze Chimes of Mercury Windchime, 3.0 in*14.0 in*3.0 in

The media could not be loaded. I was not sure what to expect as the product video does not have sound. However I am really pleased with this purchase! The sound is clear, melodic and exactly what I was hoping for. This is the smallest one that they sell but it is perfect for my small flat. Definitely considering getting others in the future and would heartily recommend this to anyone. It was delivered early, well packaged. It was exactly as described, made of high quality material, and sounds great. The only thing I would change is to have different options for the wooden weight for the chime - would be nicer to have designs other than the company logo!

I use wind chimes not in the standard way (I live in a small flat in a social housing scheme), but I take them out to wild places and make professional grade recordings of natural soundscapes including the wind chimes. The Chimes of Mercury were among the three different really small and light sets of chimes that I bought in the spring of 2013 to take out on some of my Cornwall coast path hikes, to suspend on tripods on clifftops so that I could have the chimes sounds in soundscapes of often really interesting and sometimes dramatic sea action.The Mercury chimes are actually the smallest and highest-pitched of those that I bought. To my ears they are about as high as a set of chimes could go while one could still be able to clearly hear and differentiate between the pitches of each note. Go anything much higher and one would hear rather undifferentiated tinklings. Because they are so small, their sound is not only high pitched, but it doesn't carry very far - which can be an advantage, depending on one's own situation. For my purposes I put the small chimes relatively close to the recorder and the larger ones further back, in order to get a good balance.The tuning of these chimes is to a mode on the pentatonic scale, and it really is incredibly, hauntingly, beautiful, going particularly well with sea sound. The only thing is that these bronze chimes are rather shrill toned. If I wanted the Mercury chimes for more normal use I would have chosen the silver finish version, for that has a smoother and more refined tone. However, I deliberately chose the bronze finish version of this and the Mars chimes in order to have some variety of tone in my chimes ensemble recordings - and I think that worked extremely well.Actually I have made available a lot of CDs of my 'Wind Chimes in the Wild' series, which include Cornish clifftop recordings some of which use the Mercury chimes - all of which you can find if you Google "philip goddard e-store" (not in quotes).

That is a good music, I enjoyed this sound of music from the wind chimes and so far so good the deer can hear this music so, they do not come and eat the plants and flowers from my garden like they did before but who knows when the wind has stop and the wind chimes will not move.

Exactly what I was wanting from a wind chime. Has a lovely delicate tone which is a lovely background sound in the garden. I chose these woodstock cimes as I had seen them previously in a garden centre and therefore had heard the sound and knew they were of good quality, sadly the one I wanted was unavailable at the time. I would certainly recommend to anyone requiring a gentle sound which doesn't get too much.

I’m so pleased I bought this wind chime. It’s so beautiful and the sound is lovely and very relaxing. I would definitely recommend and I will be buying another one. I’ve bought wind chimes in the past and this is, by far, the nicest one.x

This is my second one of these, like the first one so much!

Length details somewhat misleading as they include drop to handing disc. Thought they were expensive for what they actually consist of. On other hand they do produce a lovely chime noise in the wind and maker makes much publicity of attention they made in producing a unique and high quality product. Claims they are the worlds best sounding chime ?

Bought two sets as gifts. Woodstock a very good make, and sound from their chimes is always wonderful. Have purchased for myself before too, which was the reason I picked these as gifts. Happy with purchase as are the friends I bought them for.
