Based on the light and silvery tones of bells originally worn by sheep and cattle so they could be easily located on unfenced island pastures along the Coast of Maine. Hand crafted on the Maine Coast, these unusual wind bells have three clearly distinct tones that echo the beautifully haunting sounds of Harbor Bell Buoys and Island Pasture Bells. Made from high grade cor-ten steel, used in Bridges, Guard Rails and Lamp Posts because it requires no maintenance, Maine Buoy Bells are designed to hang outdoors all year long. As they weather, they turn a rich rust color. Cor-ten steel will not rust out, and the lovely patina will actually preserve and improve the tones for years.
