This beautiful hand chime produces a clear, sustained tone that's perfect for calming the mind. It's made from a solid aluminum rod mounted on a natural cherry wood base, and comes with a wooden mallet. Gently tap it, and the sound rings for about 10 seconds—ideal for starting a meditation session, yoga class, or prayer. Teachers also love it as a gentle way to get students' attention without shouting. It's small (about 5.7 inches long) and lightweight, so you can easily carry it in a bag. The sound is crisp and pleasant, not harsh or jarring. A lovely gift for anyone interested in mindfulness, music, or teaching. Comes packaged in a box to protect it.
