Spiral Gong - Kun Earth

The Kun Spiral Gongs are traditionally handcrafted by Chinese artisans using a special bronze alloy. These gongs are also known under the name Feng or Sun Gong and have an almost flat shape. This flat shape is known for allowing the gong’s voice to fully open with a wide tonal spectrum and a long sustain.

Lower tones are more dominant when played softly, but with more powerful playing the gong opens up nicely and produces wave-like overtones. Each gong ships with a beater designed to correspond with the gong size.

Kun symbolizes the Earth and the female principle. Kun is also one of the eight Chinese trigrams used in Taoist cosmology to represent the fundamental principles of reality.
