Chinese in origin, gongs were used as a call to worship, as a form of communication between villages and temples, and as a way to clear bad chi (energy) from an area. Nowadays, garden gongs have taken on a more artistic and symbolic role; a facet of Asian minimalist aesthetic that symbolizes a paring down - simplifying ones life and surroundings for meditation, self-knowledge and peaceful contemplation. Manufactured of hand-forged wrought iron and brass, these garden gongs are polished to perfection and coated with durable, exterior finishes to protect them from the sun, wind and rain for years of timeless beauty.
