In the process of creation of the Sun Gong, it quickly became obvious that the sound of this bright strong Gong, which awakens the mind and is felt physically around the head area, was born as a compliment to the Shemoon. Although the Sun Gong is a great compliment and partner to any other our creations, like the Sun and the Moon in our cycles of nature create a match which lights up everything it touches. There are many beautiful and inspired quote and poems about this magical, symbiotic, conflictive love affair between the opposites; the elements of water and fire. How much they need each other but it must be a relationship of perfect balance. They play together beautifully!

All of our Gongs are handmade from silver nickel alloy and bear the traces and marks of the maker… We do not wish to produce gongs like in the cosmetic industry with perfect skin and a completely unnatural look. We do understand that people have an idea of perfection based on not seeing any trace of the biography of the piece, but to us this is simply an expression of our highly artificial world, the perfect surface of almost everything, giving the mere surface much more importance than the inside values, the traces of work, of labour, of pain and maturity. We wish to guide our players into the wide and vast dimensions behind the surface to realize that what matters in the Gong is the Sound… not the look!!
