This is a 27 Inch Hand-Hammered Nepali Temple Gong One of a Kind

Nepali temple gongs are hand-hammered in the Kathmandu Valley by bronze craftsmen specialists.

This one is 27 inches across, hammered from a bronze in the bell-metal family, patinated dark, and finished with a full iconography that is unique to this one gong.

The central feature of this gong is a floral mandala with four lotus blossoms.

A circular floral mandala fills the center of the field, with layered petals and radial geometry inside the main ring. Four larger lotus blossoms sit around it at the top, bottom, left, and right, with smaller buds between them. The surrounding border is built from tight concentric rings, dotted bands, and a broad floral outer pattern.

The tone here is a deep G#2 held as the dominant voice, with A3 and E4 partials above it that add shimmer without taking over the low center.

Played with a soft mallet it blooms gradually, with a wide low sustain and a brighter middle layer that appears early before falling away.

The character is dark, even, and spacious, with the G#2 remaining present through the decay while the higher partials give the opening a mandala-like spread.

Playing will favor a single clean strike and a slow roll that lets the lower tone gather in a steady circle. It sounds like a different instrument depending on how you choose to play it.

At The Ohm Store every instrument is selected as a resonator first and a visual object second.

There is only one gong available like this, and you're receiving the exact gong that's pictured and recorded here.

This gong does not include a gong stand.
