What does a bowl this size mean for you in practice?
The 27 cm size is already a serious, large singing bowl. Its weight and sound give the space a presence that you feel immediately as the bowl is placed. It is the best choice for you if you hold group sessions, organise sound bath workshops, or want a truly powerful-sounding piece for the long run in your practice. You can also use it at home if you have a quiet, somewhat larger space for it.
Sound, vibration, presence
The base tone of the 27 cm bowl is deeply vibrating, slowly rising and long-lasting. After a gentle strike the resonance can be heard for over a minute. With the circular playing motion the sound builds up gradually and completely fills the space. Many use 27 cm pieces as the „central bowl” of sound bath sessions.
Handcraft, individual character
The bowl is made of a metal alloy with traditional hand techniques. Every mark on the surface – a small indentation, a fine pattern, a warmly shimmering shade – shows that this is a piece shaped by a master, not a machine. No two 27 cm Nirmala pieces ever sound exactly the same. The one that arrives for you will bring its own particular character.
Where will it unfold its potential?
At sound bath sessions, as opening and closing tone for yoga classes in a larger room, as a basic piece for therapeutic or self-knowledge workshops, as the sound of a family quiet ritual. At home, you can also place the bowl in an inviting corner of the living room and play it from time to time for a calm minute.
Cleaning, storage, lifespan
Clean with a dry, soft cloth. Do not use chemicals or dishwashing liquid. The bowl should stand on a soft cushion, and do not leave the wooden striker inside. For longer periods of rest, store it in a dry, dust-free place. Following these simple steps, the bowl will keep its sound and appearance for decades. This way it can be a true, long-lived companion for you.
