The Ishana Black & Gold Singing Bowl is a beautifully hand-beaten meditation instrument, created with reverence for the ancient Himalayan sound traditions.
Measuring 10–11 cm and weighing approximately 300–375 g, each bowl produces a clear, sustained tone that calms the breath and centres the mind.

These blackened brass bowls, finished with a radiant gold rim, carry a balance of visual depth and tonal purity. When struck or played with the included beater, the bowl’s harmonic resonance enhances meditation, mindfulness, and energy healing practices.

Used across Tibet, Nepal, and India, Ishana bowls embody the timeless art of sound as a path to stillness — transforming vibration into serenity.

Craftsmanship and Sound

Each Ishana Singing Bowl is hand-beaten from a sacred blend of metals, shaped and tuned by artisans skilled in Himalayan sound work.
The process involves heating, hammering, and refining the bowl until it produces a perfect, even resonance — a tone that lingers, soft yet powerful.

The black-and-gold dual finish reflects the bowl’s dual character: grounded and luminous, humble yet radiant. Its voice carries the harmony of metal and fire, evoking the balance sought in meditation and energy work.

Despite its compact form, the Ishana bowl produces a remarkably rich vibration — a sound that fills the room with warmth and quiet presence.

How to Play a Singing Bowl

  1. Hold the Bowl: Rest it gently on your open palm to allow free vibration.
  2. Strike the Rim: Tap lightly with the beater to release the initial tone.
  3. Circle the Edge: Move the striker slowly around the outer rim in a steady motion to sustain sound.
  4. Adjust Pressure: Experiment with contact and speed to find your tone.
  5. Listen: Let the vibration unfold — the tone will rise, deepen, and fade naturally.

Playing becomes a meditative act — a rhythm between breath and sound.

The Singing Bowl Beater

The included beater (or rubbing stick) is designed to awaken the bowl’s full range of tones.

  • Wooden ends produce a brighter, purer sound.
  • Felt or velour tips offer softer, rounded resonance.

Each Ishana bowl includes a variable-style striker that can be used on both ends, allowing you to explore different tonal textures and energy responses.

Spiritual and Practical Use

The Ishana bowl is a powerful tool for Tibetan sound healing, chakra balancing, and mindful presence.
Its clear tone helps cleanse spaces, realign energies, and guide meditation into stillness.

This size (10–11 cm) is particularly suited for focused energy work — perfect for use during personal meditation, healing rituals, or sound therapy sessions.

A meaningful, heartfelt gift, the Ishana Singing Bowl is both a spiritual instrument and a symbol of peace — an object of beauty and function, created with care and intention.

Sacred Essence

At Sacred Essence, we believe that peace is not merely heard — it’s felt.
The Ishana Singing Bowl carries that truth through every vibration, each note a quiet act of harmony between the material and the sacred.

When played, it becomes a bridge between sound and stillness — a moment of unity, balance, and calm.

Sacred Essence — where sound becomes stillness.
