The Japanese Rin Gong, also known as a singing bell or standing bell, is a traditional instrument with roots in centuries-old Buddhist rituals and meditation practices. Originating in Japan, these bowls are known for their bright, bell-like tone and sustained resonance that creates a sense of stillness and clarity.
Each Rin Gong is cast from a bronze alloy using time-honored metalworking techniques, then hand-finished to bring out its natural tonal character. The sound is pure, focused, and harmonically rich—ideal for meditation, mindfulness, and sound therapy applications.
In modern sound therapy, Rin Gongs are prized for their ability to cut through mental clutter and promote a centered, meditative state. Their high, crystalline tones make them especially effective for clearing energy, enhancing focus, and elevating consciousness during healing sessions.
*This bowl has a slight buzz. This style of bowl is brazed together from two pieces. An inclusion at this union is the most common source of a slight buzz in the sound of this style of bowl. We have discounted the price to reflect the addition of this sound to the sound of the bowl. This bowl still plays great around the rim as a singing bowl, and has a sustain correct for a bowl of this size.
