The origins of singing bowls can be traced back to the shamanic Bon religion, which precedes Buddhism in Tibet by centuries. They were traditionally used in temples for healing and meditation practices.
Their composition is an alloy of “the seven planetary metals”: gold, silver, mercury, copper, iron, tin, and antimony.
Includes wooden mallet.

Tam Tam Gong 40cm
Tam Tam gongs have a curved edge, which makes them have a more concentrated sound, not as expansive as Feng gongs.
They have 3 zones with different colors and thicknesses. The center and the rim are black and a central golden area is lowered and therefore finer.
Comes with a traditional-style fabric ball mallet and sturdy rope for hanging
Material: 7 metals
Rich in harmonics
Gong Made in Wuhan (China) in a traditional way
The gongs can have different sound even if they are of the same size since the sound also depends on the thickness and any small variation that may have occurred in its construction, as it is handmade. If you are interested in any size, you can request sound samples of those we have available.
