Some believe that touching a gong will bring you fortune and strength. We can't guarantee that, but our affordable wind gong will certainly bring you pleasure every time you hear it ringing in the wind.
Chinese instrument makers have made gongs for thousands of years and are deserving of their reputation of making the best in the world. Many processes go into creating the special sound of a Chinese Gong, including fine toning as a result of hand-hammering.
In Buddhism, the gong is sounded at the start and end of each day. In Chinese temples, gongs are struck 108 times because it's believed that sentient beings have 108 types of worries. The teaching is this - upon hearing the gong, worries will cease, wisdom will grow.
Nothing has the ability to transport us to another time and place quite like the brilliant resonance of a gong. For over a thousand years, gongs of various types have played an important role in both the religious and secular music of many Asian cultures. Gongs were sounded to chase away evil spirits, warn of invading armies, heal the sick and invoke the spirits of the dead. To be touched by a gong was said to bring happiness and strength. Today, this revered instrument of warriors, emperors, princes and priests adds a special aura to any setting. Handcrafted using traditional methods, Woodstock Gongs bring the ancient wonders of the Far East home.
This chime is designed to hang from a string loop, rather than an o-ring.

Soderberg's provided lovely flower arrangements for a 4-H event I put together at the state fair this year. They were so helpful in managing the logistics of delivery during the fair (showing up right on time with a smile) and the centerpieces were absolutely perfect for our needs, at a great price. Highly recommended -- and if you haven't seen their displays in the Horticulture Building, you're missing out! -Matthew Keefe
I have used Soderberg's for a while now. I appreciate the quality. The first time the delivery was left at the wrong house but I am so happy that I kept using them. It was several years ago. Service has been without a hitch since then. They have a good selection of products and professional service. Thank you Soderberg's. -Hank Laake
Kim is a tremendous help when it comes to customer service. She listens and really understands the customers need for prompt, professional service. She understands the flower business. In my experience, working directly with Kim at Soderberg’s Floral is by far better than placing and relying on a 1-800 or online order where so often things go wrong: order is not correct, order is late, or order does not get delivered at all. Trying to get any kind’ve help from their customer call centers is met with frustration and little to no help at all. You can be assured that Kim will listen and provide first class, personal service that your special occasion requires. She understands the time sensitive nature of such occasions and importance of follow through. The flowers are absolutely stunning. -J H
I called first thing in the morning in a panic trying to get flowers to a service happening a mere two hours later. Ava was extremely efficient and calm on the phone, assured me they could do it, and took care of business quickly. They didn’t even charge for the rush job. And lo and behold, an absolutely gorgeous arrangement arrived on time!!! I got a lovely thank you from the family with no one the wiser that it had been last minute. I would strongly recommend Soderberg’s to anyone looking for a reliable, efficient, talented florist. Truly a superlative experience. Thank you so much!! -K A
Very impressive service, I liked the fact that they sent me a link with a picture of the arrangement before it left the shop for delivery and email of date/time it was delivered. Flawless service and the arrangement was beautiful! Will definitely be using them again in the future -Cren Free
