Captures the romance and splendor of the Far East with its wonderful sound and graceful design. Inspired by traditional Asian design, our Emperor Series is intended to reflect balance, harmony, grace and beauty. Nothing has the ability to transport us to another time and place quite like the brilliant resonance of a gong. For over a thousand years, gongs of various types have played an important role in both the religious and secular music of many Asian cultures. Gongs were sounded to chase away evil spirits, warn of invading armies, heal the sick and invoke the spirits of the dead. To be touched by a gong was said to bring happiness and strength. Today, this revered instrument of warriors, emperors, princes and priests adds a special aura to any setting. Handcrafted using traditional methods, Woodstock Gongs brings the ancient wonders of the Far East home. Size/Dimensions: Not Available Color/Finish: Black ColorMapping: Black
