The Sound of Stillness: A Gong that Whispers Through Time
This antique Japanese temple gong carries the quiet dignity of centuries-old rituals. Cast in the early Taisho era, its deep iron tone echoes with spiritual resonance—once marking the rhythm of meditation or signaling the beginning of sacred ceremonies.
