The Intermediary Season
The Intermediary season represents transition and the space between seasons where all elements converge. It is a time of balance, integration, and the meeting of opposites. In Feng Shui, the Intermediary season corresponds to the Earth element — symbolizing stability, centering, and nourishment. The Sufi combines elements of water and fire, creating a unique bridge between opposing energies and embodying the harmonious blend of all seasons.
In a violet or purple color, the Sufi evokes the energy of enlightenment, wisdom, and spiritual connection. Purple carries the vibration of Crown Chakra energy, transcendence, imagination, and the divine connection within all beings. This chime is as visually enchanting as it is spiritually uplifting.
Craftsmanship & Tuning
Every Zaphir chime is handmade at Atelier Zaphir in the French Pyrenees. Each instrument has eight metal cords of different lengths, welded with silver into a metal ring and carefully tuned so the interaction of tones and overtones flows into a continuous stream of harmonies. The resonance tube is proportioned according to the Golden Ratio, and made from thin crushed and pressed layers of long-fiber cellulose board — creating the warm timbre and crystalline sound Zaphir chimes are known for.
