A sunchime is a device analogous to a windchime but which uses sunlight instead of wind. A number of embodiments are documented, including:

  • an architectural sculpture by Jeff G. Smith in Sandcastle Retreat, Clearwater, Florida[1] using glass and steel elements suspended in a 12-foot-diameter (3.7 m) skylight
  • a large public work of art in AZ Mills Mall, Tempe, Arizona by Zischke Studio[2]
