Meet, The Dancing Water Singing Bowl.

A 9 inch bell metal bronze singing bowl from Kathmandu, hand-painted across ten to fourteen days to render a full rain cycle on its interior and a pair of phoenixes wrapping its exterior.

Previous special edition runs at this size have sold out in the opening day. For the next several days you can order yours now.

This is a bell metal bronze singing bowl of approximately 9 inches in diameter, and fully hammered into shape and work hardened in Kathmandu by our long-time craft partner, then painted by hand in the workshop over more than a week of dedicated brush work.

The bowls in this series produce fundamental tones in the third octave. Above that fundamental, each bowl generates a rich series of overtones: a powerful mid-range partial that often carries acoustic energy near that of the root itself, a clear upper partial that adds bell-like shimmer on the attack, and close high-frequency partials that give the tail its silvery air.

The balance between the fundamental and the mid-range partial is what gives these bowls their two-throated voice, where the low root and the mid tone read to the ear as near co-equal rather than root plus decoration.

The Dancing Water earns its name on both surfaces of the bowl.

On the interior, the oxidized bronze sky holds five stylized clouds in cobalt and gold, and from each cloud falls a dense rain of gold vertical strokes scattered with silver stars.

At the base of the bowl, the rain gathers into a still central pool rendered as concentric rings of alternating blue and gold, with a single gold sunburst marking the point where the first drop breaks the surface.

Read from rim to base, the interior is a full water cycle in one continuous image: cloud, rain, ripple, light. That same pulsing, rippling motion is what you hear inside the bowl's beat frequency during sustain, so the picture on the inside and the behavior of the sound are describing the same thing.

On the exterior, two phoenixes wrap the body in mirror composition.

Each bird is built in layered color work: a turquoise and cobalt head with a gold beak, a yellow scaled breast, and wings in stacked bands of crimson, amber, ochre, emerald, indigo, and white.

Between the two phoenixes, long flame plumes fill the remaining space in the same palette, drawn against a hand-dotted field of stars on the dark bronze ground. The rim is burnished to a bright polished finish that frames the painted walls.

Every Dancing Water bowl is selected first as a beat-frequency-generating resonator and second as a visual piece. 

Each Dancing Water bowl ships with everything you need to play it, cushion and striker. 

Each heirloom bowl comes from Kathmandu, Nepal, and is guaranteed for life.
