Angel chimes
Angel chimes also known as ''angel-abra'' are a form of Christmas decoration popular in Europe and North America.〔(A Special Collection: Candle Powered Chimes ) Retrieved 28 June 2013〕 Apparently from the same origins as the Christmas pyramid, which functions on the same principle. They differ from these, primarily, in being mass-produced from metal and featuring bell-ringing angels, whereas Christmas pyramids are usually crafted from wood and don't necessarily have bells.
In 2007, a rare 1920s metal Christmas angel chime tree topper was auctioned online through eBay.〔(Ultimate Antiques and Collectibles Price Guide ) Retrieved 28 June 2013〕 Its box was labeled "electric chimes".
==Function==
Angel chimes have candle holders at the base which provide heat which turns a turbine at the top, which powers a series of trumpet-holding angel figures which "fly" around in a circle, striking bells beneath them. Aside from this, they usually have other decorative motifs, such as the Star of Bethlehem or a creche.
