How to use it
-
Hang it where the sun actually arrives, not where it looks best. Watch a room for a day first — most windows have one usable hour.
-
East windows fire in the morning, west windows in the late afternoon. Pick the time of day you are usually home.
-
Give it room to turn. A suncatcher that can rotate slightly moves the rainbows around the room instead of parking them in one spot.
-
Over an altar it doubles as a marker — the moon phase pendant reads as an altar piece even when the sun is not out.
-
Dust it with a dry soft cloth; fingerprints on faceted crystal cost you rainbows.
✨ Temple Tip — hang it for the hour you are home
People hang suncatchers in the brightest window and then miss the show, because the brightest window peaks at 11am on a workday. Hang it where the light lands when you are actually in the room — even if that window is dimmer. A rainbow you see beats a rainbow you have been told about.
Questions we get asked
How big is it?
40 cm long by 7 cm wide, including the chain and pendant.
What is K9 crystal?
A high-clarity optical glass used for faceted prisms and chandelier drops. It refracts light strongly, which is what produces the rainbows.
Will it work in an ordinary window?
It needs direct sunlight to throw rainbows. In indirect light it still reads as a hanging ornament, but the color show needs sun.
Can I hang it outdoors?
It is intended for windows, gardens and porches. If you hang it outside, choose a sheltered spot — brass and chain will weather in constant rain.
How do I clean it?
A dry soft cloth. Faceted crystal loses sparkle mostly to fingerprints and dust.
Hang it where the light arrives, then wait for the morning it does. #TempleOfDesire
