One of the most common frameworks for chakra sets is to have whole notes spanning one octave.   The 7 chakra sequence is C# D E F G A B.  Some teachers like to add the first note of the next octave for 8 notes C# D E F G A B C.

All the antique singing bowls in this chakra set have been selected for superior internal harmony. The sharp set is tuned a little higher to blend in the C# starting note properly. A lot of care has been taken to make sure the tones go well together. This is not as simple as picking notes because notes alone do not guarantee a smooth flow of sound up and down. Overtones and timbre play an important part.  These carefully selected antique singing bowls all blend together for a wonderful total sound.

The 7 bowl chakra set spans the fourth octave with the optional 8th note being a C in the next higher octave.  That 8th bowl follows the subtle progression of tones so that is is a proper match for the set .  All bowls are Thadobati or Remuna style for consistency in timbre and ease of play. Sizes range from 4 to 5 inches.

All bowls are labeled with note and octave as well as our identifying number.

Pricing is a very reasonable $111 per bowl. Add the 8th bowl to the set for $111

About the recordings:

The first sound clip is seven 4th octave bowls struck once with a Best Singing Bowls precision small medium mallet (S 5).  With this mallet you hear the center of the soundscape for the bowls. The second recording is multiple taps of all 8 bowls with the full series of small Best Singing Bowls precision mallets starting with the low S 3 then medium S 5 high S 7 and finally the ultra high S 9. This gives you a feel for the different moods the bowls  are capable of. Each set is individual with slight variations in tone.
