The Moon is a symbol of cycles, renewal and the inner world in many cultures. This medium, roughly 750 g, 15 cm Moon Phase singing bowl is a balanced everyday choice: small enough to live on a bedside table, large enough to fill a quiet room with warm, lingering resonance. The moon-phase pattern is hand-decorated on the bronze-style copper–tin body.
Sound and resonance
Run the wooden mallet around the rim with a steady, patient circle. The middle size keeps the note bright and easy to sustain. A gentle tap on the side opens the session with a clear, short tone before you move into the rolling sound.
Use in meditation and sound work
Place it on a folded cushion or a soft mat so the body can vibrate freely. It pairs well with morning breathwork, an evening wind-down or a short midday pause.
Care and storage
Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after use. Avoid acidic cleaners and water. Store on a soft cloth, away from impact.

Why the medium size suits beginners
The 15 cm size is one of the most forgiving for those just starting out with singing bowls. The rim is large enough that the mallet finds the right path easily, and the wall thickness gives a slow, warm response rather than an instant overtone — so the first sessions feel encouraging rather than fiddly. Many sound-therapy teachers recommend this size as a starting bowl.
