- Our hand hammered Bronze Matte singing bowls have a wonderful antique style finish that gives them an aged and timeless look. Like the antiques, each bowl has its own character and will have unique markings due to its hand hammered nature. The slightly different finishes add individuality to an otherwise simple, unengraved finish.

- This heirloom quality singing bowl is made from bell metal bronze, the best sounding metal in the world. Unlike traditional bronze, bell metal bronze has nearly double the tin concentration. The higher tin-to-copper ratio increases the rigidity of the metal, creating more resonant and full sounding bowls. Regular bronze and brass bowls simply cannot compete on the quality of both sound and vibration.

- Each item included in your purchase, from the bowl to the mallets, cushions and wrapping paper is handmade in Nepal. Our mallets are made with renewable, wild-crafted hardwood cuttings from the native Sal tree and handmade wool. Our bowls are wrapped in handmade lokta paper, gathered from a renewable reed plant. Our cushions are sewn by women’s protective collectives. Your purchase helps support the traditional arts.

- To play: the wool mallet is best for striking the bowl, while the leather mallet is best for playing around the rim. You can bring out a higher tone by playing around the rim with the wood end of the leather mallet.

- You will receive the exact bowl photographed and recorded here - zero surprises.
