Sela Percussion Crystal Singing Bowl Chakra 13" - Orange Sacral D (432 Hz)

Historical Context and Positioning in the Range

Inspired by the aesthetics and use of traditional singing bowls, the Crystal Singing Bowl offers a modern interpretation thanks to the quartz crystal and contemporary finish. This variant is part of the Chakra series, where each model is associated with one of the seven main chakras through a specific color and tuning. The orange version is positioned as the dedicated option for the sacral chakra, featuring a modern gradient visual identity and a particularly enveloping sound presence.

Who This Drum/This Crystal Singing Bowl Is For

This crystal singing bowl is suitable for both beginners and advanced practitioners in sound therapy, meditation, yoga, relaxation, or sound exploration. Its easy response and long sustain make it an excellent choice for individual sessions, sound baths, or supporting breathing exercises. It is also suitable for musicians and percussionists seeking harmonic textures and clear drones, provided the tuning constraint related to 432 Hz is respected.

Features and Innovations

The Crystal Singing Bowl Chakra 13" is made from quartz crystal whose sonic properties are enhanced by a specific production process: the material is melted and then shaped by centrifugation. This method promotes regular vibration and stable projection, with clearly audible harmonics. The frosted glass finish and its rough surface are not just aesthetic: they provide a reassuring grip during handling and contribute to a controlled sensation during rubbing.

The tuning is set to D with a frequency of about 288.5 Hz in this 432 Hz version. This means the bowl is not designed to blend naturally with instruments tuned to the Western standard 440 Hz : for musical coherence, it is recommended to use it alone or with other instruments tuned to 432 Hz. Finally, the presence of a sticker logo inside marks the model while maintaining a clean aesthetic.

Sound Characteristics

Crystal singing bowls are appreciated for their spherical sounds and very long resonance. Compared to traditional alloy bowls (bronze or brass), quartz crystal tends to offer a clearer perception, with a sharper note contour and longer sustain. The fundamental sound remains powerful, while the "singing" harmonics gradually layer, creating a sense of space and depth.

Thanks to the included mallet, you have two complementary approaches: a soft strike to quickly initiate the note, or a rubbing technique to gradually increase volume and harmonics continuously. The supplied silicone ring plays an essential role: it stabilizes the bowl and helps preserve homogeneous vibrational behavior, resulting in a more consistent emission and fully exploitable sustain, even at low intensity.
