Cosanti Foundation

The Cosanti Foundation is located at 6433 Doubletree Ranch Road in Scottsdale, Arizona and offers an artful and educational site where the earth formed concrete structures and now a large ceramic workshop and foundry sits. This is also where the famous and world renowned Soleri wind bells and wind chimes are created and sold to the public. The facility is just a short distance within Scottsdale located just off of North Scottsdale Road and is an easy drive and location to find if you are familiar with the area. Visitors new to the area have trouble locating the facility because of the single rusty metal sign indicating Soleri. The sign is easy to overlook and not clearly marked.

There are striking arrays of bronze and ceramic wind bells which are suspended in the courtyards, terraces, and garden paths. Soleri Windbells are popular as gifts for any occasion and are well known throughout the region, if not world. The dramatic bronze casting process takes place at the Foundation and can be viewed weekday mornings at Cosanti's foundry. Visitors are welcome Monday through Saturday from 9 AM to 5 PM and Sunday from 11 AM to 5 PM, but closed on all major holidays.
