The deeper form gives the sound more of a container to develop in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt also makes the bowl noticeably more stable on a surface than a shallow bowl of the same width, which is useful if it will live out rather than be put away.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHow It Sounds\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe deeper wall and heavier build produce a rounder tone than the flatter aluminium bowls, with a little more body behind it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is still a decorative bowl rather than a practitioner instrument. Expect a clear pleasant note rather than the complex overtones of a hand beaten bell metal bowl.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHow to Play It\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRest the bowl on the cushion supplied or on an open flat palm, keeping your fingers straight so nothing damps the wall of the bowl. Run the striker firmly and slowly around the outside of the rim in a continuous circle until the tone builds and sustains.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can also strike the rim once for a single clear tone, which is how most people use a bowl to open and close a sitting. Finding the right pressure and speed takes a little practice, and a slower circle usually works better than a faster one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSize \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApproximately 15cm across the rim and around 647g in weight. Wipe with a dry soft cloth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvoid abrasives on the decorated surface. Keep away from damp and do not soak or put it in a dishwasher.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Root \u0026 Still","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58554819969288,"sku":"tib-142","price":40.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1037\/7861\/5560\/files\/bG9jYWw6Ly9tZWRpYS8xRy84Qy82MFIzMEMxSjZDUks4QzFHLzg1OTMxMWRlLmpwZw.jpg?v=1787826923","url":"https:\/\/rootandstill.com\/products\/cauldron-singing-bowl-magic-mushroom-blue-15cm920","provider":"Root \u0026 Still","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
