Sound and character
This small mallet delivers a refined yet clear attack on 200–500 g metal singing bowls (approx. 9–13 cm diameter). The beech handle adds enough mass for a stable grip, while the lightweight head excites the small bowls gently, without any brittle clatter. Whether you strike the rim or rub the outer edge in a circular motion, the sound stays warm, detailed, and quick to bloom.
How to use
The mallet is ideal for individual sound-therapy applications, head-area massage, and intimate small-room practice. Hold the handle loosely between thumb and index finger and tap the rim with a short downward motion. For a sustained tone, walk the mallet around the outer rim with steady, even pressure.
Why this product
- Size and mass precisely calibrated for 200–500 g bowls

- Durable beech handle with a comfortable grip

Care tips

- Wipe occasionally with a dry cotton cloth
- Never strike hard objects or bowls outside the recommended weight range
