Tibetan Singing Bowl 6" Handmade in Nepal  Meditation G830 D293
#15
This is an excellent, handmade bowl with long sustain.  I purchased it as new in 2011 from the Bodhisattva Trading Company.   They are known for curating and importing only bowls of good quality.   This bowl is easy to play, with rich, lovely tones.  D 293/G 830. It has thick walls with deep hammer patterns and a good applied patina.  The bowl has its original stickers.  These are from the import company, not the fabricators in Nepal.   As the stickers are on the inside base of the bowl, they don't affect the sound,  (If you remove them, you might want to save them onto a piece of paper for future provenance.)
I made the sound recording to give you an idea of the various tones.  The sound recording was made with the internal microphone on my computer.
The singing bowl will be carefully packed, and will ship via USPS Package with tracking.  As I'm combining trips to the Post Office, there is a 3 day handling period.  I appreciate your patience.
Returns are accepted.  The buyer must contact me within 14 days of the purchase.  The bowl must be returned in the same condition as when purchased.
The buyer pays for return shipping with tracking.
Please contact me if you have any questions and I'll do my best to answer them.
Thank you for considering this lovely bowl.
************************************************
Because singing bowls are wonderful, here are a few extra thoughts:
I've always chosen singing bowls because of their special tones, and the combinations of overtones.   The possible age, style, and origin are lovely, but secondary to the sound. I think that each person has their own response to the sound qualities of each bowl, and that is what matters, regardless of the system or note assigned.
Please follow your inner guidance and choose a bowl that You resonate with.   Notice how you respond to the sounds.   Calming or energizing?  Are the tones  dissonant, and "break up, or clear" energy?
It's fun and useful to experiment with different pujas, or sticks.  The diameter and hardness of the wood affects the tone.  An excellent bowl may not want to sing at all with the wrong sized stick.   (Hardwood dowels are useful/fun to experiment with)
Also, as you work with a bowl, it will "wake up" as the molecules are excited as you play it..  The bowl may become more responsive over time.  (I have a beloved bowl that wouldn't sound its fundamental, or lowest note, for a few months.)  Please be patient and work gently with your bowls.  (It is possible to crack a metal bowl by applying too much force, ouch.)    Breathe with them as you work.   Gently invite the bowl to sound.    Youtube has wonderful videos as people demonstrate how to play singing bowls.
Best Wishes on your singing bowl journey!
