Cosanti Bells
Cosanti is where Soleri's world-famous bronze and ceramic wind bells are made and sold
Our Cosanti Bell
The Metal Foundry
The foundry typically pours two to three heats (a hundred pounds of bronze) a day with an average of 50 bells a heat
The casts before pouring
The sand casts after pouring
Bell shapes and one-of-a-kind designs impressed into a bed of sifted, damp silt are transferred to the bell using a slip casting method
Our Ceramic Studio produces about 5,000 tile pieces a year and about 10,000 Windbells and pots
The Ceramic Studio's solar environment enables the artists to work in the sunshine during winter and be shaded during summer
