Antique singing bowls can look rustic or finely crafted. Some bowls are simple, while others are intricately engraved. Some of the authentic singing bowls have imperfect geometry while others have a nearly perfect form. There are many unique shapes available for the original singing bowls and each culture has its own style.
Antique singing bowls range in size from approximately three inches to fourteen inches in diameter.
Singing bowls produce a uniquely warm sound that has the ability to relax the body as well as focus the mind. Himalayan singing bowls make a basic tone (fundamental tone) and two to three distinct overtones.
The fundamental tone can vary from very deep - in the large singing bowls, to high-pitched in small ones.
The interaction of the fundamental tone and overtones of a singing bowl will determine whether the bowl sounds harmonious or "out-of-tune."
A singing bowl's essence isn't only about its complex chord and the prominence of the sonic layers. Each tone is also creating a unique pattern of pulsations that makes the singing bowl sound even more magical and enigmatic. Although there are subtle differences in their tonal relationships, some bowls sound almost identical.
The sound of a singing bowl is determined by five factors: its metal alloy composition, molecular tension (changes due to the age of a singing bowl), bowl geometry, variations in the thickness of the wall, and the thickness of the rim.
