The role of the large felt-headed mallet
If you have a medium-large metal singing bowl, this mallet with a 5.5 cm felt ball head gives the most suitable full sound effect. The larger head touches more of the bowl rim at once, so the entire surface starts to resonate together, producing a deep, long-sustaining sound.
Materials and handcrafting
The handle is natural wood and the head is hardened felt. Made in India with traditional hand techniques, so wood grain and colour are unique on each piece. The 32 cm handle length offers a comfortable grip, and you can guide the mallet comfortably even during longer practice.
How you can use it
The 5.5 cm felt ball fits best with medium-large metal singing bowls of 16-22 cm diameter. Gentle striking produces a deep, full ringing tone that resonates long. Sliding in circles creates a continuous humming sound, especially suitable for group meditation and sound massage.
Dimensions and weight
The mallet is 32 cm long, the ball head is 5.5 cm in diameter and 3.3 cm thick. It weighs 107 grams, enough mass for sounding the deep tone but not tiring even during longer use. As it is made from natural materials, weight and colour may show slight variations.
Care and storage
Store the mallet in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight. Regularly dust the felt head with a soft brush. Do not wash with water, as felt may deform. Wipe the wooden handle with a dry cloth as needed. The large mallet is an especially good choice for those who have already experienced the limits of smaller mallets on bigger bowls. The combination of 32 cm handle and 5.5 cm head gives you a stable, reliable tool in your hand.
