The Compact Chau Gong for Wherever Life Takes You
The MEINL Sonic Energy Chau Tam-Tam 20"/50 cm brings the ancient Chinese Chau gong tradition into a portable, compact format. At 50 centimetres in diameter, this hand-hammered bronze gong is ready for personal meditation, sound therapy sessions, and travel — without compromising on sonic quality.
The Signature Chau Sound
Chau gongs are celebrated for their rising, swelling tone. When struck, the initial note is relatively low and contained; within seconds, it blooms outward and climbs in frequency. This characteristic "swelling" effect makes the CH-TT20 ideal for:
- Opening or closing meditation sessions
- Individual sound therapy work
- Small yoga or mindfulness groups
- Retreats, outdoor sessions, and travel
Handcrafted Quality
Every instrument in the MEINL Sonic Energy line is shaped by hand. The hammering pattern on each 20" gong face is unique, and that individuality is audible as well as visible. The bronze alloy produces the warm, resonant, shimmering tone that has made Chau gongs beloved worldwide.
