Description
Gongs have been made in China for thousands of years. Ours are made by the same craftsmen that make the traditional instruments used in temples and orchestras. Featuring a bronze gong accented with a contemporary black ash wood stand and black rubber mallet, the Woodstock Desk Gong makes a wonderful display in any home or office. The 6-inch diameter gong is suspended from a 12-inch black ash stand. This gong is crafted by master wind chime craftsmen of Woodstock, NY, under the Woodstock Chimes name.
More About Woodstock Gongs
Woodstock Gongs are ancient Asian-inspired instruments updated for today's setting. They are still made in the traditional manner, with hand-hammering and secret finishing techniques to ensure every instrument has its own special voice. They all sound deeply resonant, are emotionally relaxing, and have a beautifully exotic look.

Care
Woodstock brass and bronze products can be cleaned with a non-abrasive cleanser, but they should not need regular cleaning. After the first year, you can apply a clear coat of lacquer to keep the brass or bronze from tarnishing. If it does tarnish, it can be cleaned with brass cleaner.
Hardwood parts can be maintained by periodically applying a thin layer of Danish or lemon oil with a clean cloth. Regular oiling will help protect the wood and retard the natural aging process. Use mild soap and water (or a foaming, non-abrasive cleanser) to clean tubes, glass, or plastic parts. Try not to dampen the string(s).

Comments about Woodstock 12 Inch Desk Gong:
This desktop gong was a gift for my 13 year old son. He had previously purchased a much smaller gong from a chain bookstore for himself and was very disappointed with the tinny sound and cheap construction. It was returned. My son very much enjoys his new Woodstock Gong. The sound is pleasing and relaxing and he enjoys hitting it after a task, like homework, is completed. The size is perfect for a bedroom - not too large but large enough to get a nice sound. I think the quality is excellent, as is the sound. We are pleased with our purchase.
Pros

- Pleasant Chime
