Singing Bowl Black Beaten 14cm

Dark, steady and quietly sculptural, this brass singing bowl gives a meditation corner a clear focal point before a single sound is made. Its black beaten finish catches the light softly, while the rounded form rests low and composed on a table, shelf or floor space. What the bowl brings to a quiet practice The deep black surface feels calm and understated, with a softened sheen rather than a bright polished shine. Beaten dimples across the bowl create a tactile, hand-worked look, giving the surface depth and shadow. The wide rim and rounded body make it feel substantial, suited to a dedicated meditation space or mindful home setting. As a singing bowl, it is made to vibrate through its sides and rim when played, creating sound from the bowl itself. The simple silhouette works well on a low altar, bedside table or quiet shelf, where it can rest between moments of use. Black brass with a beaten finish The bowl is made from brass and finished in black, with a visibly beaten texture around the outer body. Fine lines near the rim add a subtle border, keeping the overall look grounded and minimal. How to use and care for it Place the bowl on a stable, level surface before playing. In singing bowl practice, the rim and sides are set into vibration, either by striking or circling with a suitable mallet. Keep the brass dry and wipe it with a soft cloth after handling. Avoid abrasive cleaners, as they may mark the dark finish. Its place in Buddhist practice Singing bowls are traditionally used in Buddhist practice as a support for meditation, prayer and focused attention. Unlike a hanging bell, a singing bowl rests on its base, allowing the rim and sides to vibrate when played. Today, bowls of this kind are also used in yoga spaces, sound practice and home rituals, often to mark the beginning or close of a quiet moment. Size and details Made from brass in India.

A thoughtful gift for a calm space This is a considered gift for someone who meditates, practises yoga, or enjoys meaningful objects with a quiet presence.
