## Description

Large Brass Sing Bowl - 17cm is a 17cm metal singing bowl. Struck or circled around the rim with a mallet, it produces a sustained tone with layered overtones that slowly fades.

From the maker: Handcrafted in India, this large brass singing bowl creates a deep, expansive sound that fills a room with calm. Its generous size produces a slower, more grounding resonance, ideal for longer meditation sessions or creating a settled atmosphere at home.

Size: approximately 17cm. Allow for small variations between batches.

## Traditions (belief, not health claims)

In meditation and sound practice, the bowl's fading tone is used as a focal point, and bowls are frequently played at the beginning and end of a session. Engraved designs such as mandalas, the Om symbol or the Buddha are decorative and devotional; they reflect the traditions the bowls come from. We share these as cultural traditions and personal beliefs only, never as health claims.

## How to use

- For a softer sound, strike rather than rub, and let each tone fade fully.
- Stand the bowl on a cushion or your flat, open palm.
- Tap the outside wall lightly with the mallet to wake the bowl.
- Circle the rim slowly with even pressure; once it starts to sing, keep the speed steady.
- Neighbour tip: rim playing is quieter than striking if you live in a flat.
- Gifting idea: a ready-to-play set is a thoughtful present for a yoga teacher or a friend starting meditation.
- Display idea: between sessions, a bowl on its cushion makes a striking shelf or altar piece.

## Care

- Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after use; skin oils can mark the metal.

### What is a singing bowl used for?

Singing bowls are traditionally used in meditation, yoga and sound practice. The sustained tone is used as a point of focus and to mark the start and end of a session. We describe this as a practice, not a treatment.

### How do you make a singing bowl sing?

Rest the bowl on a cushion or open palm, tap the side once, then run the mallet slowly around the outside of the rim with steady pressure. The tone builds after a few rotations.

### What size singing bowl should I buy?

For a first bowl, 12–18cm is a good balance: easy to hold and play, with a full tone. Smaller bowls sound higher; larger bowls are deeper and sustain longer.

### How do you clean a singing bowl?

Wipe it with a gentle, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive metal polish, especially on painted or engraved bowls, and store it somewhere dry.

### Why won't my singing bowl sing?

Usually the pressure or speed is uneven, or something is touching the bowl. Slow down, press more firmly, keep your fingers off the walls and make sure it sits freely on the cushion.
