Zen White Felt Gonger Large #ZWF3

Gentle strike. Expanding resonance.

These white felt gongers offer a soft and responsive way to enter into the sound of Himalayan singing bowls and gongs.

Through a balanced combination of weight and felt density, they allow the tone to emerge gradually—supporting both subtle vibration and fuller resonance.

A Softened and Controlled Contact

Each gonger features a medium-hard white felt head.

The contact is firm yet forgiving, softening the initial strike while allowing the sound to open naturally. This creates a more rounded and less percussive tone, especially when working with sustained vibration.

The handles are crafted from finished beech wood, offering durability and a steady, comfortable grip. Over time, this balance supports greater control over both volume and expression.

Working Across a Range of Sound

These gongers are designed to support different scales of sound—moving from lighter, more subtle contact to fuller activation.

The felt surface allows the tone to build rather than strike sharply. This makes them well suited for both gentle, body-based work and more expansive sound in open space.

Each size offers a slightly different entry point into the same relationship with sound.

Variations in Size and Feel

Small (#ZWF1)
A lighter and more compact option that offers a gentle, controlled strike. Well suited for bowls in the 7”–10” range and for working in closer or more contained spaces. The smaller felt head allows for subtle activation while still drawing out lower frequencies when approached with care.

Medium (#ZWF2)
A balanced, versatile striker that sits between softness and presence. The felt head offers a slightly muted strike, making it well suited for both personal practice and more structured approaches such as vibrational sound work. This size supports both subtle and more developed tones.

Large (#ZWF3)
A slightly heavier option with increased felt surface. This allows for a fuller and more grounded activation, supporting both performance settings and deeper vibrational work. The added weight encourages the tone to build more fully with less effort.

Material & Construction

Each piece is handcrafted and may vary slightly in size and feel.

The handles are made from slow-growing beech wood, chosen for its durability and stable grain. The felt heads are constructed from layered white wool, offering a consistent and responsive contact.

Each gonger is designed for repeated use, with an emphasis on balance, durability, and ease of interaction.
