・The history of wind chimes
Wind chimes have long been deeply associated with stress reduction, and are elegant objects said to have stress-reducing effects. They originated in Japan during the Jomon period. At the time, crops were often destroyed by various animals. A merchant sought to alleviate the problem by using clay bells, made from burned clay, to scare them away. Wind chimes then spread throughout Japan, serving to ward off dangerous animals. As a side note, bells also have this effect, and many have been used in shrines and other places since ancient times. They were also used outside of shrines to ward off bears. Strong winds were said to bring disasters and epidemics, so wind chimes were installed in many homes to ward off these threats.・About the types of wind chimes
