Description

Vintage pair of Chinese Baoding balls featuring a deep blue cloisonné finish with elegant crane motifs. Each ball contains an internal chime—one producing a higher Yang tone and the other a lower Yin tone—creating soothing sounds when rotated in the hand. Traditionally originating in Baoding, China during the Ming Dynasty, these exercise balls have long been used to stimulate acupressure points, promote relaxation, and support the balanced movement of Chi (vital energy). A classic set for meditation, stress relief, or display. W: 1.5" each — good condition.
