On a singing bowl, the engraving adds meaning to an already meditative object: the sound marks a transition, while the script offers a visual point of attention. Bowls like this are often used to open or close meditation, accompany personal ritual, or bring a sense of ceremony to a quiet space. The value is not in spectacle, but in repetition, listening and the simple act of returning to the moment.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eSize and details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDiameter: 16 cm.
