Paccard and the artistic chime

If you come to visit Australia, you can contemplate our bells in the chapel of the St Ignatius College in Adelaide. A bell frame has been installed to allow visitors to see the bells from the floor.

Crafted by hand using ancestral techniques and processes, Paccard’s chimes are by far the finest in the world. Not only that our chimes are robust and can withstand harsh environments, but also, and most importantly, they produce a beautiful melodious sound. In our workshops, professionals of bronze cast use pure red copper and block tin to procure sturdiness and refinement to the chime. Once finished, the chime moves to the tuning workshop, where it is processed to give a melodious sound. This time-consuming operation necessitates the use of state-of-the-art equipment, as well as a high proficiency and experience.

In addition to chimes, Paccard manufactures as well garden bells and church bells. Our bells gained international reputation because of their unequalled high quality.
