Singing Bowl Gift Set 14 cm Teaching Buddha

Let the striker meet the rim, and a small moment gathers around the sound. This brass singing bowl gift set brings together the bowl, mallet, cushion and pouch, so the ritual feels complete from the first use. It is made for meditation, breathwork, yoga practice, or a quiet pause at the centre of the room.

A complete set for sound and stillness

• The bowl is ready to use with its own mallet, cushion and pouch, rather than needing separate pieces.
• A gentle strike gives an immediate, bell-like tone, useful for opening or closing a quiet practice.
• Circling the rim with the mallet draws out a steadier singing sound, shaped by pressure, speed and touch.
• The engraved surface gives the piece a ceremonial presence, so it can sit on display between uses.
• The pouch keeps the set together when stored, carried to a class, or placed away after a session.

Engraved with Teaching Buddha symbolism

The bowl is made from brass and is hand-beaten, with engraved designs inspired by the teachings of the Buddha. The motifs include the Dharma wheel, lotus flower and Bodhi tree, symbols associated in Buddhist tradition with the path of practice, awakening and wisdom.

How to play and care for it

Rest the bowl on its cushion or hold it flat on an open palm, keeping your fingers away from the sides so the metal can resonate. Tap the rim lightly for a clear struck note, or move the mallet around the outer rim with slow, even pressure to encourage the bowl to sing.

After use, wipe the bowl with a soft, dry cloth. Keep it dry, store it in the pouch when not on display, and avoid using harsh cleaners on the engraved surface.

From Nepalese metalwork to daily ritual

Singing bowls are closely associated with Himalayan ritual culture and are now used widely in meditation rooms, yoga studios and thoughtful homes. This set comes from Nepal, where metalwork has a deep craft presence. The Teaching Buddha imagery gives the piece a contemplative centre: the Dharma wheel recalls the teaching of the path, the lotus is linked with awakening through difficulty, and the Bodhi tree refers to the place of the Buddha’s enlightenment. Used gently, the bowl becomes a way to mark a beginning, an ending, or a return to attention.

Size and set details

The bowl measures 14 cm across. The full set weighs 835 g and includes the singing bowl, mallet, cushion and pouch.

A thoughtful gift for a quiet practice

This is a considered gift for someone who meditates, practises yoga, teaches mindful movement, or likes meaningful objects with a sound element. The complete set makes it easy to give as a first singing bowl, while the engraved Buddhist symbolism gives it depth beyond decoration.

Common questions

Is this bowl tuned to a specific musical note?
No specific note is supplied for this bowl. Singing bowls of this kind are usually chosen by ear and feel rather than treated as precision-tuned musical instruments.

Can beginners use it?
Yes. Start with a light strike on the rim, then try circling the outside slowly with the mallet. Small changes in angle and pressure make a noticeable difference.

Should the bowl sit on the cushion while playing?
It can. The cushion gives the bowl a stable resting place and helps keep the base clear, so the sides are free to resonate.
