What it is
Small Indian Moon Phase Singing Bowl - (approx 550g) - 13cm 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
Engraved designs such as mandalas, the Om symbol or the Buddha are decorative and devotional; they reflect the traditions the bowls come from. Singing bowls are tied to the Himalayan region. Bowls made there have traditionally been hand-hammered or cast from metal alloys, and many carry engraved mantras or symbols. Traditional meanings are offered for interest and reflection, not as a health claim.
How to use it
- Rest the bowl on a cushion or your flat, open palm.
- Tap the outside wall with care 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.
- Session idea: strike once at the start of a meditation and let the tone fade completely before you begin.
- 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.
Care
- Wipe with a gentle, dry cloth after use; skin oils can mark the metal.

What is a singing bowl used for?
Singing bowls are customarily 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 fine, 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.
How do I look after the Small Indian Moon Phase Singing Bowl - (approx 550g) - 13cm?
Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after use; skin oils can mark the metal.
