Is there a musical instrument that is like a pot and is played with hands?

HandPan, never translate it literally as "hand-held pan". It is a magical instrument called the "steel tongue drum".

HandPan was born in 2000 and was made by two steel drum makers from PANArt AG company combined with Indian pottery drums. Its sound is very melodious and can bring a very comfortable feeling to the listener. Players can tap different positions of the HandPan in a certain rhythm to produce a "whispering" sound corresponding to the timbre.

Since its birth, this instrument has been sought after by many people for its UFO-like appearance and beautiful sound.

At first, this type of instrument was called "Hang", but because the process of making Hang could only be adjusted manually, its output was very low, and demand exceeded supply for a while. However, as PANArt AG promoted and iterated Hang several times, more and more manufacturers began to produce products similar to Hang. But the word "Hang" has been registered by PANArt first, and many people use HandPan to refer to this pan-like instrument.
