TIBETAN SINGING BOWL
Tibetan singing bowls are still produced today using traditional methods combined with modern techniques. The Tibetan singing bowl can be plain or decorated. It sometimes features religious iconography and spiritual motifs and symbols, such as the Tibetan mantra Om mani padme hum, images of the Buddha or other deities. In the bottom case, the third eye is depicted, which is the eye of intuition. The open third eye is a symbol of spiritual wisdom and power, a connection to the invisible spiritual world.
Before being inscribed and painted, the Tibetan bowl is cleaned with a mixture of dyes. It is then placed in a special controlled environment so that the engraved line or design can leave traces behind. All inscriptions and ornaments are handmade. This is a very laborious process!
