What it is
Medium Brass Sing Bowl - 12cm is a 12cm 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: Crafted in India, this medium brass singing bowl produces a clear, grounding resonance that feels both calming and focused. With a diameter of 12cm and a height of 5cm, this bowl sits comfortably in the hands or on a cushion.
Materials and size
Size: approximately 12cm. Allow for small variations between batches.
Traditional uses
In meditation and sound practice, the bowl's fading tone is used as a focal point, and bowls are commonly 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 it
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.
Set the bowl on a cushion or your flat, open palm.
Tap the outside wall softly with the mallet to wake the bowl.
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
Wipe with a smooth, dry cloth after use; skin oils can mark the metal.
Who it suits
Best for people starting a meditation or yoga practice.

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 soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive metal polish, especially on painted or engraved bowls, and store it somewhere dry.

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.
