Sound and character
This sturdy shelf is not a standalone instrument but a vibration carrier. With singing bowls placed on it, the vibration of each strike travels into the entire sound bed and into the client lying on it. Ash wood transmits both fine and deep vibrations evenly and preserves the bowls' original character.
How to use
The wide shelf mounts under the Feeltone sound bed, fixed to the crossbar joining the two legs. For this reason it cannot be retrofitted – please order it together with the sound bed. During a session you can keep bowls, mallets and other accessories together, and when struck, the whole bed begins to vibrate.
Why this product
If you appreciate ash's light, natural look, this shelf not only organises your workspace but also raises the quality of the session as an active vibration transmitter. Ash carries the higher overtones gently and visually harmonises with Feeltone's ash soundboards.
Care tips
- Place bowls with flat bases that stand stably on the shelf.
- Clean with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth – avoid aggressive cleaners.
- Once a year you can refresh the hard wax oil with a thin coat.
- Protect from direct sunlight and humid environments to preserve the wood.
