Bullseye gong 40", w/ mallet and iron stand This gong is traditionally chines instrument.Made of many kinds of metal heated and hand hammered and stretched to it's specific size and shape for certain sound�quality.Then ,put on an old simple lathe for leveling and hand hammered again. The black circle and center are made by certain chemical-therefore never is it perfect in color� nor sharp lines. Traditionally called Chao gong and we call it-"Bullseye gong" for obvious reasons... When struck on the edges of center circle-will create very deep,earthy,relaxing sound.When strike on the brass color area-will have more high notes and "fire". This is a serious musical quality gong ,used in orchestras,recordings,sound tracks,live music,therapy,meditation,feng shui, looks beautiful in hotel lobby ,Yoga centers,in the home and in the garden... Minimalistic design stand�that requires very small foot print ,and allows the gong to "shine". The "coldness" of the metal is mellowed out by the "warmth" of the hand forged curls, smooth lines�curves.Slender enough to "bounce" with the vibration of the gongs and expresses the sound through motion. The stand is our design ,hand made of "heavy" iron, 24" diam base�, 3" x 3/8" x 61" pole.Comes in 2 separate pieces for easy shipping,�to be simply assembled with 2 bolts.included.
