Bronze Trung Sisters Gong & Stand—24 to 36"

Our Trung Sisters gong set offers 8 stand and size combinations for gongs of 24 to 36 inches, with a mallet included.

Trung Sisters gongs are made in Vietnam by workers skilled in bronze. Folk artists handmake each gong with traditional, centuries-old methods, so hammer marks or scuffs mark each one as an individual piece. The 24-inch gong has a 3-inch rim depth and a 2-inch bell.

Stand options: the Rambo Rimbaud, clean black lines and adjustable height; the Spirit Guide, wood stained dark brown; the Gibraltar, hardened steel in 1.5-inch rack tubing; the Fruity Buddha, top hooks that adjust to the gong. 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.
