What it is and how it works This Chinese wind gong is designed to be struck to produce a resonant tone. It can be played with a padded gong mallet or a drumstick, and a firmer strike can yield a brighter tone with longer sustain. Shimmering and focused sound Choose a padded mallet for a shimmering wave of overtone tones, or a drumstick for a more focused bell-like tone. Hand selected and handmade With over 16 years of experience, each gong is hand selected to ensure quality and sound. Every Chinese gong is handmade in China using traditional methods. Great for sound healing Wind gongs have a traditional role in meditation and ceremonies and are well suited to sound healing work. The range of tones supports deeper, introspective meditation.
