Handmade from natural caoutchouc - always pleasantly light in your hand
We want to surprise you with something special. The black head of the grater, handmade from natural caoutchouc, immediately catches the eye with its 70 mm diameter. The roughened surface of the grater head is reminiscent of cooled lava stone. The slightly roughened surface also ensures that a very intense and deep sound is produced when the gong is rubbed, the vibrations of which immediately get under your skin.
Always comfortable to hold despite its weight
At 185 grams, the friction mallet Lava Edition 70 is a true heavyweight among friction mallets. Nevertheless, you don't have to expect any signs of fatigue during sound play, because the handle is made of a very light and grippy fiberglass, which easily withstands even the high pressure of the head. For an even more comfortable sound practice, we have additionally covered the ollihess friction mallet Lava Edition 70 with cork, so that the handle lies securely and firmly in your hand. Due to its high weight and special grip, only little pressure on the gong surface is needed to produce intense and harmonious tones. Despite its material variety, the friction mallet Lava Edition 70 is completely vegan.
Visual effects with the friction mallet Lava Edition 70
the friction mallet Lava Edition 70 from ollihess is particularly suitable for the Tamtam gong, where the different areas also produce different tones. Thanks to the very soft rubber surface, the friction mallet leaves no residue on the surface of your gong.
Be surprised by the visual effects: If you play the gong in the light area, the black color of the rubber head creates an exciting contrast that merges directly with the black edge of the gong. If you want to play the gong chime on a black area of the gong instead, the sounds are produced with the Lava Edition 70 gong chime so that they feel invisible.
Discover your possibilities: Of course, you can not only use the gong driver to play the gong, but also to create extraordinary sounds on singing bowls .

PLEASE NOTE: Small irregularities are completely normal!
The balls of our friction mallets are hand-cast and then refined with various tools until the desired surface is achieved. This artisanal process can result in small imperfections on the ball. This is completely normal and does not affect the sound you can create with this friction mallet.
