singing bowl
Struck meditation instrument
A singing bowl is a metal bowl that produces a sustained tone when struck or rubbed around the rim with a mallet.
Associated with Tibetan Buddhist meditation and sound healing practices, though most are manufactured in Nepal or India.
The bowl "sings" as friction creates resonant vibrations: She circled the rim until the singing bowl hummed.
