【Nakagawa Masashichi Shoten】Takaoka Copperware Wind Chimes These wind chimes are from Nakagawa Masashichi Shoten, a shop in Nara that showcases various Japanese crafts. They are Takaoka copperware wind chimes. Takaoka City, Toyama Prefecture, has long been a thriving center for casting. These wind chimes are made using the bells found in Buddhist altars. The combination of a specially formulated copper alloy and wood for the clapper creates a gentle sound, with a focus on the quality of the sound. 【Brand】Nakagawa Masashichi Shoten 【Origin】Takaoka City, Toyama Prefecture 【Materials】Body: Copper alloy 　　　　　Clapper: Nara oak 　　　　　String/Paper strip: Hemp 　　　　　※Comes with a special box 【Size】Diameter 48mm, Length 210mm (excluding string) I purchased this new and have kept it in storage, unused.
