Silent Mind Tibetan Singing Bowl Set – Easy to Play & Beginner Friendly Meditation Bowl with Cushion & Mallet | Stress Relief & Mindfulness | Gift-Ready

This beautiful Tibetan singing bowl is a standout piece. Its compact size is perfect for walking or sitting meditation, whether I’m striking it or singing it by sliding the striker around the rim. Both techniques produce a rich, resonant tone rather than a cheap, tinny sound. It also makes for a wonderful centerpiece on my dining table; guests are often drawn to it and delight in discovering the beautiful sounds it creates. Note: The bowl I received differs from the online photo (mine is a deeper blue/different pattern), but I actually prefer it. A very happy surprise!

I fretted for days over which singing bowl to buy from Amazon as the consensus is that most are cheaply made and mass-produced in a 3rd-world country. In YT review videos, Silent Mind came up as a somewhat "higher quality" version of these small metal singing bowls. I'm glad I went with Silent Mind as they are indeed a step above the others, just keep in mind that it's probably still somewhat mass-produced. An included card stated that they were handcrafted in Tibet, but I make no presumptions that they're made in a remote village high up in the Himalayans by generationally-skilled craftsman, and you shouldn't either. If they're actually made in Tibet as the card says, they're probably made in a factory in a large city. Regardless these bowls are still nice and sound great! The bowl is heavy for its size, the ringer is solid wood with a thin leather-like cover on one end. My ringer had an indent in the wood from being pressed against the edge of the bowl during shipping, but it still works fine. The pillow is decorative and functional, although don't expect the fabric's pattern to be centered, mine wasn't. The incriptions on and in the bowl are exotic-looking, I just hope they don't translate to "ding-dong rings the tiny bowl of this western ding dong"–I'll pretend the inscriptions speak of peace & mindfulness through love & harmony & yadda, yadda yadda.... As for using the bowl's sound, I was able to make it sing immediately on my first try. Just take your time with slow strokes around the rim after first hitting the edge to make it vibrate (ring). The Silent Mind website has a few instructional videos if you can't figure it out (the website link is on an included card). I can literally make this little bowl sing extremely loud, to the extent that it mimics the weekly testing of my neighborhood's tornado warning siren. It's amazing how much sound can come from this little bowl! I'm very satisfied with this bowl, it works well, is well-made and was still somewhat inexpensive. I should note though, if you're sending this as a gift to someone, it did not come in its own box–it was simply tightly wrapped in bubble wrap and tape. Just keep this in mind if you're gifting one during the holidays. Enjoy your bowl, you western ding dong!

Wow! What a beautiful singing bowl set! I am SO HAPPY! The bowl is so unique as it is hammered, which is the original way of making the singing bowls. Each bowl has a very unique one of a kind look to it. Each bowl will be different, as they are all handmade. The pillow (which was found wrapped up inside of the bowl, if you don't see it right away) is so very beautiful and it is very well made and with nice material. The pillow is nice for displaying your bowl and for putting your bowl on the pillow as you play it it; or you can play the bowl in the palm of your hand, just making sure that your palm is flat and do not let your fingers touch around the bowl as it will mute and distort the sound. The mallet is made of nice and very sturdy wood, it has the the felted end for the "tapping" of the top edge of the bowl (felted as to not harm the bowl when tapping) and the other end is a wider continuation of the wood (for going around the he rim to make the bowl sing). It is a nice size as it fits nicely in the palm of the hand. It has such a beautiful, harmonious and enticing sound quality and it really works. When I am using the bowl, without the pillow, I can feel the vibrations from the bowl. When I am using the bowl, I use the "tapping" to get others attention, to signal a start, or a change of session and an end to a session. I use the "singing" of the bowl for mindfulness, meditation and harmonious vibrational energy. This would also be a great purchase for yoga, meditation, self awareness time and more. I am so very happy with my purchase. I highly reccomend this bowl!! I look forward to using it for many, many years to come! Silent mind also has a great customer service as they sent me an email first and foremost making sure that I knew my bowl was on the way. I then received another email making sure that I did in fact receive my bowl and making sure that I was happy with my purchase. They are concerned on making you happy, I really liked that and made me feel special. In the email they sent me it included an attachment with information on how to use the bowl, how to take care of the bowl, the many uses for it, the intentions behind it , the history behind the bowl, gives you tips on uses and much more. I really appreciated their customer service and me not feeling like I am just another "sell" for them. I am SO very happy with my purchase. I encourage anyone who has been wanting one of these singing bowls to try silent minds bowls out, you will not be disappointed. Happy happy customer!!! :)

Beautiful and very well made singing bowl. Lovely chime. Bowl sings easily and quite loudly too for its size. Very happy with purchase. More info on product usage and care and other materials provided when you go to their website.

It's lovely, makes lovely sound. Easy to use. Some people may like this. For my preference I prefer my singing bowls a little bit taller. This is small. Yes it is portable and durable. It is great quality but I returned it for something larger

I love my Singing Bowl Set! I am sorry I waited this long to have one. The sound is rich, calming, and resonates beautifully—perfect for creating a peaceful atmosphere in the sewing room. Seems to quieten the birds in the house along with the dogs.

Great sound and pretty bowl

great quality for the bowl and mallet itself! highly recommend for anyone, it’s super easy to use! thanks so much

The quality of the bowl is outstanding. The intensity of sound is a bit too soft though. No, I don't hold the bowl, it's just resting on the cushion provided and the cushion rest on my palm. Probably due to the small size of the bowl. I love it anyway.

NO SUENA AL FROTAR EL CUENCO

👍

I love this, very good for meditation

Sono davvero molto soddisfatta del mio acquisto. La campana ha uno splendido suono ed è anche molto bella; ho apprezzato anche l'imballaggio molto sicuro oltre che la velocità della spedizione. Avendo approfittato poi di un'offerta, posso dire di essere molto felice anche del rapporto qualità-prezzo. L'unica pecca è il cuscino, forse troppo piccolo e spesso per permettere alla campana di vibrare senza che il suono venga in parte attutito.
