The Sela Chau gongs are real masterpieces, handmade in China from a special bronze alloy. They are available in sizes of 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44 and 48 inches. The larger the model, the deeper and also more voluminous the sound when struck. The scope of delivery of each model includes a mallet made of maple with a plastic head with velvet cover and a carrying bag with zip.

The Sela Chau Gong Lotus has a traditional shape with a rim that curves backwards. Its surface is treated and turned to different degrees on the outer rim, in the middle and in the area in between, which alone ensures a very special, characteristic look with a partially shimmering, matt-gold finish. However, the Sela Chau Gong Lotus particularly stands out due to its elegant lotus design, which is worked into the outer area. The lotus flower is also known as the “flower of life” and has many spiritual meanings – among other things, it stands for purity of heart, creativity, wisdom and enlightenment.

Gongs are an integral part of many cultures around the world and produce soothing, long-lasting, esoteric sounds. Depending on how hard, where and with what the Sela Chau gong is struck, different frequency ranges come to the fore. It can be played in a much more versatile way than it might seem at first.

Because of their relaxing effect, gongs are used in meditation and sound therapy, among other things, as their vibrations penetrate the whole body. But percussionists also like to use a gong as a special effect in musical and orchestral contexts.
