A deep breath, a gentle strike on the rim — and the room fills with a long, metallic resonance. With its Five Buddha motif, this aluminium sound bowl carries a powerful tone that helps to open meditation practice, mark a quiet moment or simply release the tension at the end of the day. The 21 cm diameter gives the bowl a confident presence — it stands well in a display cabinet, on a shelf or in a meditation corner. It is a substantial, weighty, self-assured piece whose appearance and sound are equally memorable.
The powerful sound
The substantial aluminium construction combined with its relatively large size produces the „extra loud" character — the sound is sustained and clearly audible even in larger spaces. The bowl is best played with a soft velvet-headed striker: gentle circular motion along the rim produces continuous tone, while a light strike yields a strong overtone. It is both a meditation instrument and a striking decorative object — and when played alongside other bowls, it can build an entire soundscape.
The Five Buddha motif
The outer surface of the bowl is decorated with a richly detailed motif depicting the Five Buddhas — an ancient Buddhist symbolism representing five aspects of wisdom. The pattern provides a contrasting yet harmonious appearance, so the bowl remains valuable as a standalone decoration even when not in use. The detail is particularly pleasing up close.
