The Sela 28" Chau Gong Sun is a handmade traditional gong for meditation sound therapy and musical performance. Crafted in China from a special bronze alloy it produces deep fundamental tones with a rich overtone spectrum that responds naturally to different playing techniques and dynamics. The result is long-lasting vibrations that suit everything from gentle sound baths to expressive percussion performances.Its distinctive Sun finish combines an untreated matte bronze surface with polished concentric rings creating striking visual contrast while subtly shaping the gongs response. The polished rings add clarity and projection while the untreated areas preserve an earthy complex sound. Visible hammer marks and natural patina ensure every gong has its own unique appearance and voice. Complete with a velvet-covered mallet featuring a maple handle and a black carrying bag its ready for transport storage and performance.
