One clear note

A quartz bowl speaks a single tone where a hammered bowl gives several at once. It is played one bowl at a time, and that one note is the whole point.

Diameter sets the pitch

A wider bowl speaks lower and holds longer; a small one speaks higher and moves between rooms more easily. Choose the size for the room, not for the price.

Fragile, and we say so

Quartz chips and it travels badly. If your bowl is going to a class every week, a hammered metal one is the easier companion.

Frequently asked questions

What does it mean for a bowl to be tuned to the throat chakra?

It means the bowl sounds a particular note - traditionally associated with that chakra in the practice. The association is traditional rather than physical: the note is measurable, the correspondence is a convention.

How do I know which note my bowl is?

The note is set at the factory and is listed on the product page where we have it. If a note is not listed, we do not know it, and we would rather say so than guess.

How is a crystal bowl played?

Run the mallet slowly around the outside of the rim with even pressure, or strike it once and let it ring. The tone builds rather than starting at full volume.

Do I need a set, or is one bowl enough?

One is enough to begin, and most people start there. A set exists to play notes against each other - that is a later decision, not a first one.

One bowl is enough to begin

The advice you will hear most often from people who play is to start with one bowl you like the sound of, rather than a set of seven you will use twice. A single bowl teaches you the strike, the pressure and the pace. A set is a second decision, not a first one.

Frosted or clear, and why it matters

A frosted bowl has a matte surface that grips the mallet, so it takes less effort to bring the tone up around the rim. A clear bowl is denser and rings longer, but the mallet slips more easily. Neither is better made. It changes how the bowl behaves in your hand, not what it is worth.
