What it is
Large Chaken Handmade Singing Bowl (approx 800g) - 17cm is a metal singing bowl. Struck or circled around the rim with a mallet, it produces a sustained tone with layered overtones that slowly fades.
Materials and size
Tibetan Singing Bowls. One singing bowl.
Traditional uses
Singing bowls are connected with the Himalayan region. Bowls made there have by custom been hand-hammered or cast from metal alloys, and many carry engraved mantras or symbols. 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. These are traditions and beliefs, described for interest, not health or medical claims.
How to use it
- 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.
- For a softer sound, strike rather than rub, and let each tone fade fully.
- Yoga idea: teachers often sound a bowl or bells to open savasana or to mark the close of class.
- Home idea: a short sound practice after work is a simple way to mark the switch from work to rest.
- Group idea: in sound baths, players space bowls of different sizes around the room for layered tones.
Care
- Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after use; skin oils can mark the metal.

Ideal for people starting a meditation or yoga practice. At £100.00 it's a statement piece, and it ships free.

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.
