Chinese Gong & High C Stand—16"
The High C stand carries a 16-inch Chinese gong of your choice from 16 styles, and a traditional Chinese gong mallet completes the set.
Brightside Gamma gongs have an unlathed front face and a lathed back. Galactic Bao gongs carry etched concentric rings around the center bell of an unlathed Bao gong. Wind gongs are fully lathed with a bright, shiny finish and a flat edge, and a quick strike gives a splashy tone.
The High C stand has screw-in feet that keep it balanced and assembles by hand. Gong weights run 3 lbs to 6 lbs 8 oz depending on style. Activities often associated with creativity, learning, and leisure can also play a meaningful role in cognitive and emotional well-being.
Reading, writing, listening to music, and playing an instrument do more than provide entertainment or creative expression. Research suggests that these activities can help individuals explore, express, understand, and regulate emotional experiences. Music has been associated with emotion-regulation processes and mood management (Peters et al., 2024; Chong et al., 2024), expressive writing has been linked to emotional processing and reflection (Pennebaker, 2018), and reading has been associated with emotional understanding, empathy, and perspective-taking (Rezende & Shigaeff, 2023; Luperini, 2021). These activities also engage cognitive systems involved in language, attention, and memory (Kunert et al., 2015; Maess et al., 2001; Patel, 2003; Yurgil et al., 2020). Musical and linguistic activities draw on shared neural resources for processing structured information, including syntax (Kunert et al., 2015; Maess et al., 2001; Patel, 2003), while music training has been associated with working-memory processes and executive functioning (Yurgil et al., 2020). Reading, writing, and music may support emotional well-being and cognitive development while strengthening communication, memory, attention, emotional understanding, and self-regulation.
