The right striker or cushion changes how easily a bowl sings and how long the note sustains. At around 7cm this is the mid-sized option: big enough to notice on a shelf, small enough for a desk or windowsill. Mid sizes are the most versatile: they hold a bracelet or a handful of tumbles, or sit happily on a bedside table. From the maker: The plush surface reduces movement and protects surfaces, allowing the bowl’s sound to flow cleanly and evenly. With a diameter of 7cm, it’s well-suited to smaller bowls and compact setups. This is one of 3 options in the Singing Bowl Velvet Cushion range; nearby choices include 11cm, 16cm. Size: approximately 7cm. Allow for small variations between batches. ## Traditions (belief, not health claims) Himalayan bowl players in long-standing practice rest a bowl on a cushion or ring so the rim vibrates freely; a bowl held against a hard base is quickly muted. Traditional meanings are offered for interest and reflection, not as a health claim. ## How to use - Match the cushion diameter to the base of your bowl so it sits level. - For rim playing, use a leather- or suede-wrapped striker and keep even pressure as you circle. - 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. - Session idea: strike once at the start of a meditation and let the tone fade completely before you begin. ## Care - Brush cushions to remove dust and keep them out of damp storage. ## Policies - Delivery: UK delivery £3.95, free over £40, 2–5 working days.
