Singing Bowl Nepalese Moon 13cm 550g

• The rounded form feels grounded and substantial, with a low, open profile that sits calmly in a room.
• Its golden surface is softly mottled, giving the metal a time-worn depth rather than a flat shine.
• A circular line emblem sits on the outer wall, adding a small point of visual focus.
• The open rim invites two ways of playing: a gentle strike, or slow rim work with a suitable striker.
• It works as both a sound object and a sculptural piece, especially on a desk, altar, shelf, or meditation corner.

A singing bowl responds to touch, pressure and patience. Strike the rim gently to hear the metal open into tone, then let the sound fade at its own pace.

For the singing technique, move a wooden striker slowly around the outer rim with even pressure. The sound builds as friction sets the metal vibrating, so a steady hand matters more than force.

This bowl is handcrafted in Nepal from a metal alloy of brass, copper bronze, iron and silver. The finish has a warm bronze-gold colour with darker natural-looking variation across the surface, so the bowl feels characterful without being ornate.

Use it to open a short meditation, mark the beginning of a yoga session, or bring a clear sound into a quiet room. It also suits simple sound practice at home, where the act of listening becomes the ritual.

Place it on a stable surface before playing, or hold it flat in the palm if you are comfortable doing so. Use gentle contact around the rim rather than tapping hard against the metal.

Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after handling. Keep it away from prolonged damp, and avoid abrasive cleaners, as they can disturb the aged-looking surface.

Singing bowls are closely associated with Himalayan sound practice and are widely used today in meditation rooms, yoga studios and personal rituals. In Buddhist and contemplative settings, a struck tone often marks a threshold: the beginning of silence, the close of a sitting, or a moment of renewed attention. This bowl carries that idea in a simple, practical form. It is not a decorative symbol pretending to be an instrument, but a real metal bowl made to be heard, held and returned to over time.

Diameter: 13 cm. Weight: approximately 550 g. Made in Nepal from brass, copper bronze, iron and silver.

Choose it for someone who meditates, practises yoga, enjoys sound rituals, or is creating a more grounded corner at home. Its weight and finish give it the feeling of a lasting object, made for repeated use rather than occasional display.
