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. 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. You may change the lowest bowl in the set C4 to a larger bowl, over 6 inches. This larger bowl is 2-3X the weight of the other bowls in the set and adds a lot of power to the bottom of the range.  Cost is $125

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

Pricing is a very reasonable $120 per bowl. Add the 8th bowl, the high C  to the set for $125

You can internally expand this set by adding the five sharp notes D# F# G# A# and C#5 for $125 a bowl – $625.  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.
