Assembling a group of Mani bowls is difficult enough. To come up with a set that has the range of this one and plays well together as these do requires an extensive inventory of high quality bowls not to mention a highly trained ear. There is no bowl in this set that I did not first individually select for the quality of its sound. The assembly process is that of arriving at a Gestalt, a coherent whole greater than the sum of its parts. Attention has been paid to making the intervals between bowls even experientially. All the bowls are excellent quality pieces. These Mani bowls are large and heavy ranging from 6 1/2 to 8 inches across.
Each bowl is individually labeled with the note and octave as well as their place in the sequence. The set comes with full statistics for each bowl, dimensions, weight, frequencies, notes and overtones. The labeling is really helpful, makes it easy to lay the bowls out and associate them.
The seven bowl set costs of $2975 comes to $425 per bowl, significantly less that the bowls would cost individually.
