Singing bowl Chenrsig hand-painted

A handmade, etched singing bowl made of a bronze alloy with trace amounts of noble metals (such as Ag, Ni, Cd, Ru, Pd, Pt, Cr, Mn), laser-engraved and hand-painted.

Underside and Exterior
The outside of the bowl is decorated with cloud and wave motifs, circular mantra panels and ornate borders. The underside features a structured vajra mandala: a square palace layout with four gates surrounding a central four-armed vajra, encircled by flame patterns, concentric mantra rings and protective ornamental bands.

Hammered Singing Bowls
Hand‐hammered singing bowls are made through a complete hand‐hammering process. Each bowl is shaped and formed using traditional techniques, where metal discs are heated, stacked, and hammered by experienced artisans until they take the desired shape. This process is repeated several times to achieve the final form. As a result, each singing bowl is unique, with slight variations in size and shape that reflect the authentic craftsmanship. The alloy used consists of copper, tin, and a mixture of other metals, carefully combined to produce a rich, resonant tone. After shaping, each bowl is chiseled and polished, resulting in a durable and harmonious instrument suited for both ritual use and sound therapy.

Etching and Painting process
The deity images and decorative elements are first etched by high-powered laser and then lovingly hand-painted by skilled thanka artists, resulting in a unique, hand-finished surface.
