The Story

The Burma Bell is a handcrafted ceremonial instrument traditionally used in temples and monastic settings across the Himalayan Region.

This is an extra large version of the Burma Bell -- at 12 inches from "tip to tip" (our original version was 8 inches)

I've measured this to be a G5 at 770 hertz, though the frequency will vary slightly.

Cast from bell bronze using classic metallurgical practices, this bell produces a sustained, high-frequency tone in the fifth octave, with complex overtone structures characteristic of premium, resonant bronze.

This is a precision-tuned, struck bell—not a singing bowl—and is intended to be played by striking with a padded mallet.

The resulting sound is stable, clear, and prolonged, with naturally occurring modulation due to close-proximity overtones.

The close grouping of frequencies creates a natural acoustic beating and pulsation.

There is overtone presence detectable up to 7,000 Hz, with a gradual drop-off. The harmonic distribution shows peaks in the mid and upper frequency bands, giving the bell its shimmering tonal character.

This instrument is bright and consistent, and is cast from bell-metal bronze, a cousin to the incredible singing bowl.

This is a limited release item. 

Your bell will come with it's own padded striker, 10 available now.
