Antique Traditional Indonesian Gong and bonang

The gong, the undisputed protagonist of this composition, is made of copper and features a dark patina that accentuates its antique and mystical character. This aged surface, which softens its original shine, adds depth and mystery, almost whispering the stories and rituals for which it was used.

Supporting the gong is a solid wooden structure, painted in a lacquered red that, despite the marks of time, retains a timeless beauty. The traces of wear reveal layers of underlying color, giving the piece a lived-in and authentic charm, as if it had witnessed countless ceremonies and sacred moments.

Alongside the main gong, two small gongs, part of a traditional Indonesian musical instrument used in the Javanese gamelan, enrich the scene. These gongs, affectionately called “pots,” are carefully arranged on cords within a wooden frame (rancak), ready to produce hypnotic melodies when struck with tabuh, the sticks used to play these instruments.

Imagine this masterpiece placed in a special corner of your garden or inside a refined space, such as a dining room or restaurant. It is not just a decorative object but a true journey through time, a tangible fragment of a rich and fascinating culture. Ideal for collectors or anyone who wishes to enrich their environment with a piece that tells a story, this gong and its musical companions are destined to become the heart of any space, emanating an aura of serenity and mystery.
