Frosted Crystal Singing Bowls

Frosted bowls are the workhorses of a sound bath: thick quartz walls, a full voice that carries through a room, and a matte surface that grips the striker so a clear tone comes easily. They're where most of us start, and the bowls we keep returning to.

Choosing a bowl

6–9 in

Higher and lighter. Quick to speak, easy to carry, a focused tone with a shorter ring.

10–14 in

The middle of the set. Balanced volume and sustain; the most versatile for personal practice and for leading groups.

16 in and up

Deep and long. Strong vibration you feel as much as hear. They need floor space and a steady hand.

Carrying cases

Padded cases sized to the bowl, added from any bowl’s page: 5–8″ $50.00 · 9–12″ $75.00 · 13–16″ $100.00 · 17–20″ $125.00.

440 Hz or 432 Hz

Bowls are relational: played together, their tones meet and make new harmonics. Choose one tuning for a set so the bowls agree with each other. 440 Hz bowls are tuned to concert pitch; 432 Hz bowls are tuned in just intonation.

Pitch is an art and a science

Crystal bowls are made by hand, and each one can sit a few cents above or below its exact pitch. That's part of its character, and it can be adjusted. The simplest way is water tuning: a little water in the bowl lowers its pitch, so a bowl that sits sharp can be brought into step with the rest of a set, by ear or with a tuner.

Each preview plays the bowl's target pitch, generated in your browser. Every frosted bowl has its own character, so the one that arrives will sound a little different in person.

Made to order and shipped straight from the maker. Most bowls arrive in 2–3 weeks. Questions about building a set? Write to us.
