These handcrafted beautiful singing bowls look beautiful as a statement piece and are also beneficial to your health! Originating in the himalayas over 2000 years ago, singing bowls are used worldwide for meditation, music, and relaxation. These singing bowls are hand hammered, hand-carved, and hand-tuned by the best singing bowl artists in kathmandu. Singing bowls “sing” by creating vibrations. These vibrations are heard through beautiful sounds that are felt within our bodies and energy fields. The bowls fill the surroundings with harmonic vibrations, adding depth and dimension to any personal prayer or meditative activity. The friction created by a mallet rubbed around its rim produces astonishingly complex and continuous overtones of great harmony. With continuous practice, a more melodious tone can be produced by striking the bowl with a mallet wrapped in soft material. Meditation bowls are made of various metal types and sizes for unique tonal qualities.
