D3+0 Grotta Sonora 15" Nickel Silver Handheld Gong

The Grotta Sonora 15" Nickel Silver Handheld Gong is made from a softer alloy than most gongs, and it delivers a surprisingly powerful, complex sound for its size: a clear, focused note enriched by harmonized overtones.

This lightweight, handheld model offers a dynamic way to enrich your soundscape. Its portability allows you to easily move, swing, and spin the gong while playing, creating unique sound modulations and a truly immersive experience.

For those new to sound healing, this is a perfect starting point to begin your journey. For experienced practitioners, it's a wonderful addition to an existing collection, providing a distinct, dynamic tone that complements larger instruments.

A Note About Gong Sizes
Each of our gongs is a unique, handmade item. Because of this, the actual size may vary slightly. We typically find that most gongs will be approximately 1/4" to 1/2" smaller than their stated size.

Fundamental Notes
The listed note and octave represent the gong's primary center tone. While we do our best to capture an accurate representation of this note, the actual tone can vary based on volume and overtones. Please refer to the sound file for the best example of the gong's sound.
