This wind chime is very peculiar in the way that you don't have to hang it. It is very handy since you can put in anywhere whether inside or outside your house. This wind chime is also specific in the way that the metal bell is inside another bell-shaped bamboo basketry. It is a very meticulous work with a beautiful lacquered finish. Miyabi Andon is a company owned by the Sugiyama family for three generations, their craftsmen are widely recognized for their skills and expertise, two essential qualities to produce the best Suruga basketry. Miyabi Andon has been recognized an official Suruga basketry producer in 1973 by the Japanese government. Suruga bamboo basketry from Shizuoka prefecture is different from most other bamboo basketry in Japan. It is unique for using round splints of bamboo without the skin being shaved off. It dates back to the beginning of the Edo period (1600 - 1868) when warriors almost exclusively made bamboo goods as a side job in more peaceful times. Being located on the highly frequented Tokaido road between Edo and Kyoto Suruga basketry became very popular as a souvenir for travelers.
