What it is
Singing Bowl Velvet Cushion - 16cm is an accessory for playing or displaying a singing bowl. The right striker or cushion changes how easily a bowl sings and how long the note sustains.
At around 16cm this is the large, statement option: a centrepiece for a dresser, altar or sound space. Large pieces hold a whole collection of stones or jewellery and give the deepest, fullest presence in a room.
From the maker: The softly padded form reduces movement and protects surfaces during use. With a diameter of 16cm, it is well-suited to larger bowls used in meditation, sound work, or display.
This is one of 3 options in the Singing Bowl Velvet Cushion range; nearby choices include 7cm, 11cm.
Materials and size
Size: approximately 16cm. Allow for small variations between batches.
Traditional uses
Strikers are wrapped in leather, suede or felt; softer wraps give a warmer, rounder tone, while bare wood brings out brighter overtones. We share these as cultural traditions and personal beliefs only, never as health claims.
How to use it
For rim playing, use a leather- or suede-wrapped striker and keep even pressure as you circle.
Match the cushion diameter to the base of your bowl so it sits level.
Group idea: in sound baths, players space bowls of different sizes around the room for layered tones.
Practice tip: record yourself playing on your phone; it is the quickest way to hear whether your pressure is steady.
Neighbour tip: rim playing is quieter than striking if you live in a flat.
Care
Keep wooden strikers away from heat and water to steer clear of warping.

A good choice for sound practitioners building a kit. At £4.00 it also works as a small add-on gift or stocking filler.
