7 Metal Singing Bowls

Traditional 7-Metal Bronze Singing Bowls Handmade in Nepal

These natural-finish singing bowls are hand-hammered by the HSB team in Kathmandu. Their alloy is based on traditional bronze: approximately 80% copper and 20% tin, with iron, zinc, lead, silver and gold present only in very small trace quantities. The exact character of each bowl also depends on its dimensions and the artisan's hammering work.

For a detailed explanation of why alloy and hammering create a unique voice, read our article on the science behind the sound of handmade singing bowls.

Standard Sizes: 10 to 28 cm

The standard range covers diameters from 10 to 28 cm. Each selected size represents a range of less than one centimetre: for example, an 18 cm bowl measures between 18.0 and 18.9 cm and is never smaller than the selected size.

As a general rule, smaller bowls are lighter, easier to handle and higher-pitched, while larger bowls are heavier and tend to produce lower, more powerful tones. Because every bowl is handmade, the weights below are practical averages rather than guaranteed exact weights.

Special 35 cm Format

A 35 cm version is also available in this natural 7-metal design. It is a special large format outside our standard 10–28 cm range, originally developed for a customer request and now regularly ordered. It should not be confused with our separate Giant Singing Bowls, which begin at approximately 39 cm.

Choose by Size, Musical Note or Set

Choose a size when diameter and weight are your main criteria. If an exact pitch is required, explore our singing bowls by musical note and frequency. We measure the fundamental frequency and can select notes with a tolerance strictly below 3%. For a harmonized group of bowls, see our singing bowl sets.
