Hand-picked by craysuper in collaboration with one of Nepal's greatest singing bowl producers, collectors, and sound therapy luminaries. Ensuring authenticity and quality of appearance and sound.
- Sourced in Nepal from our trusted friend—a master singing bowl maker, collector, and sound healer—this rare Antique Mani Singing Bowl is a true treasure, hand-selected with care by our craysuper team for its sound and distinctive form.
- Mani bowls are highly distinct in shape, feature thick, inward-sloping walls and flat bottoms that make them more substantial than other singing bowl styles. "Mani" means jewel in Tibetan, and these bowls live up to their name with their special presence and jewel-like sound.
- Typically dated between the 16th and 19th century, Mani bowls are considered incredibly rare and highly sought after by both collectors and practitioners.
What makes Mani singing bowls so unique is the way their shape and heavy walls influence the tone. They are known for producing higher-pitched fundamental notes that carry a clear, bright, and penetrating quality. These uplifting tones are great for meditation and focus.
Antique Tibetan singing bowls are treasured for their remarkable tonal quality and handmade character. Every hammer mark, patina, and sign of age tells a part of its history!
