The Sela Wind Gongs are true masterpieces, made by hand in China from a special bronze alloy.

Each model comes with a beech mallet with a fleece-covered head and a practical zippered carrying bag. As the surface of the Dark Moon Gongs is completely untreated, they have some special visual and tonal features. These gongs have a natural and earthy sound with a rich and complex frequency spectrum. The untreated surface also gives the Dark Moon gongs a rustic and authentic look. The visible traces of hand hammering and the natural patina create a very special aesthetic and make each piece a unique work of art. Gongs are an integral part of many cultures around the world and produce soothing, long-lasting, esoteric sounds. Depending on how strongly, where and with which mallet the Sela Wind Gong Dark Moon is struck, different frequency ranges come to the fore.
