Crystal singing bowls are
laboratory crucibles made of crystal powder that is heated to more than
3000°C. These crystal singing bowls deviated from their primary purpose in the 1990s, becoming a vibratory vessel for “sound alchemists”.
Crystal bowls are sacred instruments used for meditation, therapy, and spiritual awakening. They were initially created using an industrial process based on a French patent by St. Gobain, and thanks to a number of technological advances have evolved over the years to be used in energy healing practices. Many different models are made today, mainly in China thanks to a soil that is rich in natural quartz and rare earths. These vessels are also made out of synthetic quartz, though these products have a lower vibratory and sound quality.
It is therefore important to select your instruments based on strict and precise specifications that use quartz of outstanding quality to obtain high frequencies and long tone vibrations.
