Tibetan Singing Bowl Set, Authentic Handmade Meditation Bowl Stress Relief Yoga Set with Striker & Cushion for Sound Therapy, Chakra Healing, Spiritual Gatherings

Being bored to smithereens, playing match three games and looking at insane one liner questions on Facebook, I saw this and thought, this should be fun, and a challenge. Well, I love a challenge. So, I bought this on a total whim. Having never seen, heard, or touched one in my life. I figured, “Well hey, if it doesn’t work, it will make a cute little conversation piece, or a “catch all” for my diamond dots items. So I carefully unpacked a very well packed nicely crafted box, out came a rather nicely made little drawstring burlap bag, bearing gifts within, a cute gold and black sweetly designed little donut cushion, approximately 3 inches across. Along with two wood dowels, one with suede on one end of the darker dowel. As well as a lighter weight, softer wood dowel. Well me being a bit impatient did not read the directions, nor did I glance at them. I just set this really nice looking little bowl on its pedestal gold and red donut, grabbed the dark dowel, struck the bowl and promptly killed the vibes the moment the sueded end of the dowel touched the bowl. Okay, let’s repeat that 20 times and get nothing. Well, it makes a great bell. So I promptly repacked everything like new and told the hubby “I got ripped off! Should’ve paid attention to the feedback. Take her to UPS, I really need that cash back. What happened? No catch all bowl? Nope it’s going back!!!” So I set it on the floor at my feet ready to ship out. But something funny happened, I couldn’t stop thinking “You didn’t give me a fair chance, open me!! Try me! You aren’t a quitter!” So again, out it comes, then I get the brilliant idea to You Tube it. Not a lot of help there really, but it encouraged me to not give up. So I picked up the darker dowel by the wrong end, I was holding the suede end and thought “Oh well, what difference does it make? It’s easier to hold it this way I put the bowl in the palm of my hand, but my palm is deep like a bowl, little did I realize it was stopping the bowl from doing what it was designed to do. I couldn’t let the whole thing die right there. It was meant to sing” again I struck the bowl, gosh it has a nice ring, and a great reverb vibe too. I then started rather hesitantly to move the bare end of the dowel slowly around the rim, with it catching and skipping because it has a waxy feel, but wait!! What’s that I hear? It squeaked at me! It made a noise! Quickly realizing it was working, but my palm was muting it, I set it on a small piece of dense memory foam I had nearby! Awesomeness! A few steady turns around the bowl, and suddenly she was mine! This bowl was designed some where far away, destined for my hands to bring it to life! She sings! Beautifully! The suede end of the dowel just drags the bowl around. That’s not gonna work, not from my perspective. The spare dowel seems too soft of wood to get the bowl to give out vibrations. I have tried all manner of surfaces, but keep coming back to the memory foam. Bottom line don’t just try one thing and say it doesn’t work. Keep trying! Don’t give up! This little bowl was destined for you! Give it life! I love my bowl, and will soon look for a larger one for to share my life with! This bowl makes me happy each time I use it. Who won the challenge? The bowl did of course, it won a place in my heart, life and home. Buy one and don’t give up!! Cons? Zero! I like the tiny imperfections, it further makes it mine. Pros? It makes me happy! It can do the same for you!

OK, so initially when I bought this, I could not get it to sing and then I ended up getting gifted a bowl that came with a slightly different sized donut to sit on and a straight wooden mallet (no velvet) and I could get that bowl to sing quite easily. So I started practicing on this one using the wooden mallet from my other bowl. So I have found that if I set this one on the palm of my hand with my hand completely flat (none of my fingers or anything except my palm touching the bowl) and hit it with the mallet on the velvet side and then turn it over and use the wooden side to “sing it” it sings beautifully and lasts for a very long time with a gorgeous tone. Eventually you’ll be able to sing it beautifully with the velvet side of the mallet. I also tried it on the little donut that came with my other bowl, which was a little smaller (less wide) and had less surface area touching the bottom/sides of the bowl and I could get it to sing as well….but I could not get either bowl to sing with the wider cusion/donut the came with this bowl. It seemed that there was too much surface area touching the little bowls so they could not sing. Once you get it singing it has a very beautiful low tone that will last for quite some time. I’m glad that I figured it out because I initially thought “well..I guess It’s just a cute little decoration that I could hit for a short tone” but it actually does sing quite beautifully. The tone is different than my other bowl and it’s honestly quite lovely.

This bowl works. It takes a bit of practice (about 10 minutes for me) to get it to sing. Tap the bowl, and then rotate the leather tipped stick around the shiny top part of the bowl (not the rim like I was trying to do at first). Although the bowl is small, It is quality made, and definitely looks good. The cloth ring base that comes with it is quite small and slippery so the bowl wants to slip off it while making it sing. I find it easier to hold it in the palm of your hand. This is a great beginner bowl that is well worth the price to see if you like these things.

This singing bowl is amazing! It has a rich, calming tone and is perfect for meditation or relaxation. The design is beautiful, and it comes with everything you need to start using it right away. Great quality for the price — highly recommend!

Smallest singing bowl I have ever seen, but... The sound is clear and the song is strong. The donut shaped pillow is frayed and many strings are loose. It is packed right so the seams will soon split. There are two wands. One with the black rubber coating for a dampened sound and a plain unvarnished wood version for a strong clear sound. Overall impressive. Too bad about the fabric defect of the small pillow.

It’s more like a mini toy versus a singing bowl. Thought it would be a bit bigger. Can’t fully hear the vibrations and can’t play a full song. It’s hard to use, after a while I’d just be banging it. It’s cute however.

I bought this and was so excited for it to get here. I knew it wasn't going to be a huge bowl but I was a little bit surprised by how small it is. I am happy with the size even though I was surprised. (maybe I missed some measurements somewhere in the description) the bowl fits perfectly in the palm of my hand and sounds amazing! I played it in front of my husband and he almost fell asleep. Its very soothing and I am VERY happy with it. The only down size is I have to take my rings off when I use it because the bowl vibrates on them and it not only makes a bad sound but almost tickles my fingers, but I don't think thats any fault of the bowl itself. I did give the sound quality a 4/5 only because sometimes it is really hard to get the sound going but if you keep trying eventually the sound kind of picks up and sounds good.

This is the second little singing bowl I've purchased as a white elephant gift.. last year it was stolen more than once and was pretty popular! I like to also throw in some crystals, palo santo, and incense to make it a more substantial gift. Just a heads up, when you open it you're going to think, "Wow, this is small!" but it packs a punch and is a great little bowl to have.

Es la primera vez que compro un cuenco Tibetano, siempre me habían llamado la atención al verlos en exhibición. Pero estaba consciente de que por ser primera vez no quería comprar uno caro. Vi tutoriales en YouTube en lo que llegaba, especialmente sobre cuencos pequeños. Hay que tenerle paciencia a este chiquitín pedacito de Nepal. Si recomiendo ver tutoriales para aprender y aprovechar al máximo. Yo estoy muy contenta! Muy contenta!!! ❤️

Purchased as a gift .. sounds terrible looks terrible it’s all scratched up . Soooo disappointed :-(

I like this small can put in my small bag

A wonderful package that completes my desk.

Fue un regalo para mi esposa y está encantada, lo volvería a comprar
