We really would like a singing bowl for our home. We will be working with our singing bowl contact Rain, of iSingingBowls, to bring us back the right bowl from Tibet.
About Singing Bowls: Singing bowls produce multi-harmonic sounds which invoke a deep state of relaxation which naturally assists one in entering into meditation. This is why they are a quintessential aid to meditation, and can be found in homes, churches, temples, monasteries, meditation halls, and yoga studios throughout the world.
Legends claim that antique singing bowls from the Himalayas are hand-forged from bell-metal bronze alloy consisting of from 7 to 12 metals. These metals may include silver, nickel, copper, zinc, antimony, tin, lead, cobalt, bismuth, arsenic, cadmium and meteorite iron. However, without an analysis of each individual singing bowl, which is costly, it is impossible to accurately list the exact metals contained in a particular bowl.
