Bronze alloy, Tibet.

Semiphoras' high-quality, low-profile and heavy Thadobati sound bowls sound with strong vibrations. Their tone is clean, well-balanced and clear. The long and controlled sound fades away steadily. The bowls are decorated by hand with elaborate symbols and mantras. Sound bowls are suitable for use during the Purifico phase to sanctify the space.

The ringing bowl or sounding bowl is a Tibetan instrument that belongs to the class of idiophones. In Nepal and Tibet, bronze bowls have been known since ancient times. Among Buddhist monks, lamas and nuns, playing bowls have been used as musical instruments both during meditation and various ceremonies. However, the original, more precise purpose of the beautifully sounding sound bowls is still shrouded in obscurity. The bowls are made from a bronze alloy that contains at least copper and tin. Other metals such as iron, silver, zinc or nickel (sometimes even gold) are found in small amounts in the mixture. Genuine, antique sound bowls are always forged by hand, and their slow manufacturing process requires special skill and care.

Several different models of sound bowls are known. Thadobati bowls are among the oldest models and these simply beautiful bowls have been known since the 15th century. The Thadobati bowl can be recognized by its almost straight sides and flat bottom. The bowl is played by lightly tapping the outer side with a wooden stick. Alternatively, the bowl can be played by rotating the club around the inner or outer edge of the bowl. Bell caps are also available padded in different ways. In this case, the sound coming from the bowl is also different. A pad made of felt or a small padded pillow is often kept under the bowl. Thadobati bowls are usually played by holding it in the hand. Semiphoras softly vibrate Thadobati sound bowls are suitable also excellent for playing in sound therapy over the chakras.
