Collection: Chinese Gongs with Stands

A gong needs somewhere to hang, and these sets answer both questions at once: a hand-selected Chinese gong paired with a stand that fits it, plus a mallet to play it. We choose our Chinese gongs in Wuhan ourselves, listening for a clean fundamental free of buzz, then match each one to a stand with proper clearance so the gong can swing and ring unobstructed. Sets run from small desktop pieces to floor-standing instruments over three feet across.

Choosing is straightforward. Decide between the two main voices first: chau gongs, with the traditional lathed black-dot center, blend a deep fundamental with a crash that builds; wind gongs are flat, brighter, and bloom almost instantly. Then pick the size your room and budget allow, remembering that larger gongs reach deeper and sustain longer. These combinations make gratifying gifts precisely because nothing else needs to be purchased — unbox, hang, play. Most sets are in stock, and orders placed before 1pm PST typically ship the same day. If you would like to hear a set before deciding, our San Francisco and Los Angeles showrooms welcome listening visits.
