Dora 銅鑼 gong made of bronze from Japan, approximately 50–100 years old, tested and working, with stand.
AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This gong (dora 銅鑼) comes with a stand. It is thought to be about 50 to 100 years old.
I think the stand and stick were made later.
When you hit it, it makes a very nice sound. Please enjoy this resonant sound.
A gong (dora 銅鑼) is a Japanese percussion instrument that produces sound by striking a bronze or brass disc with a drumstick. It is used in a variety of situations, including Buddhist memorial services, the music for folk performing arts, background music for kabuki, and as a signal to set sail.
It originated as a percussion instrument used by the southern peoples of ancient Java and Sumatra, and is said to have been introduced to Japan via China and Korea. In Japan, it has been used to signal the departure of ships and in the tea ceremony, and began to be produced in Kanazawa as the tea ceremony became more popular.
