Wind chime are ancient designs made to beautify gardens and as exterior designs of gardens at home or other premises. Wind chimes made from wood can either be in the form of suspended tubes rods or bells, but in some cases other shapes depending on the culture of the designer. Wood wind chimes are in most cases a complement for natural settings in gardens.

Wind chimes are a creation that makes use of nature to produce natural music that is pleasing to the soul and creates a mood that instills relaxation and calm. Wood wind chimes are basically designed to adorn peace and tranquility and as a unique way of garden decoration. The use of wood to create chimes is adored because this material can be curved into any desired shape so as to come up with the suitable theme and sound in the garden.

Wood wind chimes come in many shapes and sizes and the basic sound produced consequently depends on the size and length of the rods. Chimes can also be made in a way that glows with sunny sentiments; this is achieved through a slight glazing or a fine piece of paining on the rods. Colorful floral adornments are in many cases intertwined with the chime theme so as to give a natural garden look.

The use of wood is intended to produce in-harmonious sound as opposed to other wind instruments that produce harmonious music. In some cases though, they are created with some kind of accuracy so as to produce sound that is in a way harmonious but not totally. With some chimes, harmonious sound is acquired by hanging the rods at precise lengths.

When the sound produced is intended to be harmonious, as is very common with wood wind chimes that are of very high quality, tuning is then done. Tuning off the sound is acquired by placing the wooden rods at given lengths of space from each other.  Chimes are in most cases created to create a lower pitch than that produced by metallic and other forms of materials used to make chimes.

The other common method of producing appealing sound from wind chimes is the use of a ball placed at the center of the wooden rods. Whenever wind is strong enough to push the rods, they strike against each other and the other rods, so as to create much more unique sound.
