Machine-made bowl with tightly spaced precise hammered marks. These bowls are traditionally used in Japanese temples and are meant to be gonged. This bowl sings with the suede and wood striker included with the bowl.
Rin Gongs are a mainstay of Zen meditation. Smooth sound, very relaxing with no shrill overtones! Bowl includes a free cushion and a small wood striker.
Our Japanese style bowls are the same as used in temples all over Japan today. Currently, Japan imports these from Wuhan China where the gongs are made. We are one of the first to bring a large number of these to the West.
