Sound
Weight | Diameter | Sound Sample |
1000 - 1200 g | Approx. 20 cm |
The sound samples can only give an approximation of the sound of the singing bowls, as the sound differs somewhat from bowl to bowl and depends on many factors such as metal composition, wall thickness, temperature etc. A deviation in the sound of the singing bowl sent from the sound samples audible here is therefore not a defect.
Traditional Manufacturing in India
The manufacturing is done in small workshops and is a sweaty affair. The composition of the metal is a secret and significantly affects the sound quality.
First, a metal disc is made to glow. Then, several men drive the shell out of the disc by hand, little by little, with a lot of force and skill, using hammers. As is usual in blacksmithing, many operations of annealing and driving are necessary until the final shape is achieved.
Finally, the bowl is smoothed before being lovingly decorated with engravings. It receives its beautiful shine at the end by extensive re-polishing by hand. Due to the handwork and the changing composition of the metal, each singing bowl never sounds exactly like the other.
