Singing bowl samadhi
(Product No.: 06985)
Hammered singing bowl from Nepal, with another shape and a special long-lasting sound.
About hammered singing bowls: Whipped or hammered singing bowls are made entirely by hand. Every single singing bowl was carefully hammered by hand, which requires several work steps. For the production, the different compositions of metal as raw materials (copper, tin, zinc, iron, lead, gold and silver) are first melted in the furnace, depending on the manufacturing requirements of bronze singing bowls or seven-metal singing bowls etc. The hot molten metal becomes taken out of the oven and poured into cups or cube shapes of various sizes and weights. Then the metal molds are rolled out into round metal sheets of the necessary size and thickness. Then the leaves are hammered or beaten by hand after precise measurements and categorized according to weight and size. For the hammering process, 4 to 5 metal sheets are stacked on top of each other and then heated until they burn red. The red-hot metal sheets are hammered by a group of handicraft experts until the heat stays in the metal and further heating and hammering follow to form the singing bowl. The heating and beating of the stacked metal sheets is continued until the desired shape and size is created from the metal sheet. (This is the reason for the fluctuations in the size of the hand-hammered singing bowls). Only when the metal sheet glows red can it be hammered; if it cools down, it loses its softness and flexibility, becomes harder and cracks or breaks when it is worked on. After completing the desired shape, the individual manufacturing process begins. During this process, each bowl is brought into the same shape and size, which in turn requires heating until it burns red. After the shape and size has been completed, the details of the shape are touched up, then the individual singing bowls are engraved and the surface is smoothed from the inside and outside.
Diameter: 20-21 cm (weight approx. 875-1050 g)
A clapper and pillow are included in the delivery
