Antique Tibetan Singing Bowls
For your convenience, this category features all antique singing bowls available for sale on our website. As you browse through this collection, you'll find antique Tibetan singing bowls of various styles and sizes.
Antique singing bowls range from rustic to finely crafted. Some are simple, while others boast intricate engravings. You'll encounter antique singing bowls with imperfect geometry, as well as those with nearly perfect form. Original Himalayan singing bowls come in many unique shapes, each reflecting the style of its culture.
The sizes of antique singing bowls range approximately from three to fourteen inches in diameter. They produce a uniquely warm sound, relaxing the body and focusing the mind. Himalayan singing bowls generate a basic (fundamental tone) tone and two to three distinct overtones. The fundamental tone of an antique Tibetan singing bowl can range from very deep in larger vessels to high-pitched in smaller ones.
The interplay between a singing bowl's fundamental tone and overtones determines whether the bowl sounds harmonious or "out-of-tune". However, the essence of an antique Tibetan singing bowl isn't only about its complex chord or the prominence of sonic layers. Each tone also creates a unique pattern of pulsations, lending the singing bowl its magical and enigmatic sound. Although there are subtle differences in their tonal relationships, some of these instruments may sound almost identical.
Five factors determine the sound of an antique singing bowl: its metal alloy composition, molecular tension (which changes due to the age of a singing bowl), bowl geometry, variations in the wall's thickness, and the thickness of the rim.
Furthermore, the rarity of an antique singing bowl significantly enhances its intrinsic value. Over the years, the task of locating a high-quality antique Himalayan singing bowl has become increasingly challenging. The cost of genuine instruments possessing exceptional sonic aesthetics continues to rise annually.
