Singing Bowls – Valuable Wisdom and Art

Singing Bowls

Best Singing Bowls specializes in high quality antique Himalayan and Tibetan singing bowls.  Every singing bowl is hand selected during my buying trips to the Himalayas.

Genuine Antiques and Exceptional Sound

These beauties were chosen out of the many thousands of singing bowls as genuine antiques with impressive playing characteristics. Most bowls are sold individually.  We also have singing bowl sets, groups of bowls selected for their unique harmonies.

Best Singing Bowl Prices

Best singing bowls offers a wide selection of high quality singing bowls for fair and reasonable prices.   I put a tremendous amount of effort into the procurement process so that I can offer excellent value. Rather than tag singing bowls with high prices and then promote a 40-50% off sale I prefer to put a good price on the bowl to start with.  For a bit more insight into just how singing bowls get priced check out my policy.

Best Singing Bowl Information

We pride ourselves on providing the most comprehensive information about our singing bowls.  Of course each bowl has its own sound clip. The sound clips let you hear the bowls being played with both mallets and ringing sticks.  Instead of just one photo per bowl Best Singing Bowls provides a gallery. Singing Bowls are listed with exact measurements such as diameter, height , weight, tone and octave.  I also try to capture the essence of the bowls in a description.  There are no surprises  when you buy from Best Singing Bowls.

30 Years of Singing Bowl Passion

My passion for collecting singing bowls began almost 30 years ago, way before they were popular or well known in the West.  Decades of ringing singing bowls has embedded their sounds deeply inside of me.  My longstanding interest in Tibet and Tibetan Buddhism has led me to hundreds of books (The San Francisco Library has a spectacular collection of rare 19th and early 20th century books on Tibet) and many paths of study. The articles and information on this site reflects my own unique perspective and synthesis.

Fascinating Journeys and Conversations

It is one thing to go to the library and quite another to travel to the Himalayas.  A range of interesting trips over the years have led me to some very interesting conversations; talking to experts, enthusiasts and common people about the history of singing bowls. Naturally, I have my own somewhat unique or even quirky take on these amazing objects and how they have made their way into the 21st century. There are some surprising parallels with some common metallic objects you just might find in your pocket .

The Complete Singing Bowl Experience

To make your singing bowl experience complete, you’ll find a wide selection of accessories, including mallets, strikers, mats, and cover cloths.  If you’ve never experienced playing singing bowls with orchestra quality mallets, you’re in for a treat; it is easier to play them and you can you’ll get so much more out of your singing bowls.  We also have custom mallets and strikers made by Nepalese craftsmen to our specifications.

Whether you are looking for a beautiful sounding singing bowl, a sound healing bowl, or a special meditation object, Best Singing Bowls has hundreds to listen to.
