A round metal disc with the seated Buddha cut from its center, hung from a chain and trimmed with twelve small bells and red glass beads on fine chains. The open silhouette points to stillness and presence, while the bells chime softly in a passing breeze. Hang it near a doorway, meditation corner, or covered porch where the air can move through it.

Details

Design: A round metal disc with a seated Buddha silhouette cut from its center, hung from a chain, with 12 cascading conical bells (6 on each side) and red glass beads strung on fine metal chains below
Size: Approximately 33" long in total; the disc measures about 10" wide
Material: Upcycled metal, soldered, with a distressed finish; glass beads
Included: Chain attachment at the top for easy installation; two-sided design can also be hung as a mobile
Care: Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth. Keep in a covered indoor or outdoor space to preserve the distressed metal finish
Origin: Fairtrade, handcrafted in India
Note: Soldered from upcycled metal by hand, so slight variations in finish, patina, and bell placement are natural and part of its one-of-a-kind character

Meaning & Intention

In Asian art, the Buddha has long been depicted in negative space, a visual gesture toward the idea that awakened presence is often found not in solid form but in the stillness around it. Here the seated figure is cut away entirely, opening the heart of the disc to shunyata, or emptiness.

Below, the cascading bells carry their own history. In temples and doorways across South Asia, small bells mark the boundary between the ordinary and the sacred; their sound is said to clear stagnant air and call the mind back to the present.

Together, the open silhouette and the twelve bells make a piece about presence through absence and sound — one that doesn't only depict tranquility but produces it, however faintly, whenever it moves.

Essence & Elements

Intention: Peace, mindfulness, calm

Symbol: Buddha silhouette in negative space; cascading bells of mindfulness

Ideal for: Anyone who wants a meditative accent that engages sound as well as sight

Suggested mantra: Be still, be here

Questions & Guidance

Can I hang this outdoors?

Indoor use is recommended to protect the distressed finish, but a covered porch or patio out of direct rain works well and lets the bells catch the breeze.

Will the bells actually make sound?

Yes. The twelve small bells chime softly when the piece is stirred by a breeze or a gentle touch, offering a soft cue to pause between one task and the next.

Where is the best place to hang it?

Near a doorway, window, meditation corner, or covered porch — anywhere air moves through the space. Since the design reads from both sides, it can also hang as a mobile.
