You will appreciate the deep, reverberating sounds and creative opportunities the Chau Gong offers. Combine your talent with a Chau gong and be amazed at what beautiful sounds you create!

The Chinese people have used gongs as a ritual instrument for thousands of years. The deep tones clear the air before special events. This gong is crafted from one cast piece, hand-hammered using century-old traditions.  The Chau Gong is often used to announce the arrival of a government official, warning people to clear the street, much as a police siren is used today. 

The sound is intriguing for people with and without special needs. When the gong is struck with a gap between strikes, it creates a relaxed, meditative energy to whoever hears it. This gong is made of bronze. It is available in two sizes:

• 70cm diameter
• 95cm diameter

The 70cm and 95 cm Chau gongs come with a mallet and a black powder-coated steel stand. You can select from a Square Stand or a C-Stand.
The 70cm Chau gong weighs 10kg and the stand weighs 5kg.
