Singing bowl - 7 metals with extra silver - 2000-2010 - handmade

Singing bowls traditionally originate from Himalayan regions and are used for meditation, mindfulness, and ceremonial purposes. This particular singing bowl is composed of seven metals plus extra silver, a combination believed traditionally to correspond to various planetary influences and produce rich harmonic overtones. Handmade between 2000 and 2010, such bowls are often crafted through labor-intensive methods that include hammering, shaping, and tuning to tonal precision. The inclusion of silver may enhance the bowl’s visual appeal and tonal complexity. These bowls are struck or circled with a mallet to create resonant sounds, valued by sound practitioners and collectors for their aesthetic and acoustic qualities.
