Hand-hammered from a seven-metal alloy in the old workshops of Patan. Strike it once and feel what the room does next.
Description
This is not a decorative object. It is a sound instrument.
Made from an alloy of seven metals — copper, tin, zinc, iron, lead, silver, and gold — and hammered by hand in Patan's metalworking quarter. Each bowl takes two to three days to make. The tone is tested before it leaves the workshop.
A single strike produces a resonance that builds before it fades. At the right frequency, that sound does something physical — to the body, to the nervous system, to the quality of silence in a room.
Use it to open a sitting practice. To close a session. To reset a space before you begin something. We list a primary note where we can hear one cleanly. We include a striker with every bowl.
What leaves our showroom has been played in our hands first.
Care Instructions
- Strike with the wooden mallet provided. Leather-wrapped end gives a long, sustained tone. Bare wood gives a sharper, cleaner strike.
- To play the rim: press the mallet to the outer wall with even pressure and move in a slow, steady circle. Start slower than feels natural.
- Store on the cushion. Keep away from prolonged heat or moisture.
- Clean with a dry cloth only. No soap, no water.
- If the tone dulls over time, a firm wipe with a dry cloth restores it.
