Emperor Gong Chime - Medium 10" diameter

Hung this 10" gong by the window and the etching catches the light beautifully. The tone is warm and soft when I strike it, not harsh at all, and it's become my little ritual before starting work.

The etched calligraphy design on the face is what drew me in—it looks elegant just hanging on the wall, even before you strike it. At 10 inches, it’s the perfect size for my meditation corner, and the tone it releases feels rich and resonant. I’ve already used it every evening this week.

The sound it makes is surprisingly deep and resonant for a 10-inch piece, and the calligraphy-style etching looks even more elegant lit by candlelight. I catch myself striking it several times a day just to hear that hum linger through the room.
