FAQs

Dinner gongs became popular in large households during the Victorian era, often utilised to announce meal times or gatherings, heavily influenced by trade with East Asia and the Aesthetic movement.

Authentic period gongs typically feature a cast bronze or brass disc suspended within a turned hardwood frame, such as oak, mahogany, or beech, often incorporating spool or bobbin turnings.

Authenticity is determined by examining the construction techniques, such as traditional joinery, hand-turned wooden bobbins, patination on the metal disc, and period-appropriate hanging cords or fixings.

This piece can be styled as a striking focal point on a sideboard or console table, contrasting traditional craftsmanship with contemporary minimalist surroundings.

Maintain the wood with a microcrystalline wax to preserve the finish, and dust the metal disc gently without using abrasive cleaners that could damage the original surface patina.
