These Shaman Rattles are one of pieces that is the pride of our shop. These are hand-painted or hand-carved rattles made by hte indigenous peoples who use them in their own rituals, including Ayahuasca ceremonies. These exact rattles are made for the Curanderos and the participants of the rituals that involve a Shaman seeking answers through Ayahuasca or simple meditation.
Due to the hand-painted and hand-carved nature of these rattles, size will vary, and we cannot send you any specific colors either. If you want TWO rattles, you can ask to have them of the same color if you wish, but we cannot fill requests for specific colors of individual rattles, and may not always be able to fill requests for "matching" rattles. But, each one is crafted using traditional color combinations, and individually tested for sound.
These are the SMALL size; approximately 8" long total, with 2" gourds. Click here for more info...

Don't be fooled by the small size of this powerful singing bowl. Yes, it is intended mostly as a gift, to remind one of the beautiful tone and energy that singing bowls can provide, but it also produces a surprisingly clear tone. This is not a handcrafted bowl as our larger ones are, but the gift box, mallet, and singing bowl cushion are.
These mini-sized singing bowls also make great travel companions. They pack up easily in any size travel bag, and provide a pleasing tone with a longer-than expected sustain. Of course, as with all of our products from Tibet, these are fair-traded, and profits go to help Free Tibet. Click here for more info...

Traditional singing bowls are constructed of a 7 metal alloy which, when struck or rubbed, produce a resonant humming tone conducive to meditation practice. Actually, the use of instruments such as bells, cymbals, and gongs in Tibetan and other schools of meditative practices and other rituals are quite common, but few offer as rich a sound as singing bowls. The concepts of sound and vibration as the means of creation and transformation are common doctrinal features of Buddhism and Hinduism, as well as many other world religions, including, surprisingly, the Judeo-Christian tradition. We hand select this bowls for tone; so be very careful with which singing bowl you choose to purchase...there can be a VAST difference in quality with singing bowls. Look HERE for more info. We feel that we excel in choosing singing bowl for both their tone and their craftsmanship, partly becuase several of the people on our staff use these very bowls in their meditation practice, and these are no exception. All bowls are hand-beaten into shape for a tone that is noticably clearer and lasts longer than any bowl made by any machine. They are also a lovely reminder of the energy that these bowls provide, while not taking up much space in one's environment. Click here for more info...

This is a large 12" singing bowl for the clearest and richest tone available, with the longest decay time of any other singing bowl we offer. There are larger singing bowls, but after they get larger than 12" in diameter, the cost goes up considerably, and the gain in both tone and sustain of the sound does not increase enough to justify a larger bowl.
