Frank’s Picks
I love going to my favorite bookstores and spending time with the section where the employees curate their current favorites. Some are old classics. Some are brand new. Some are underappreciated works that deserve more attention.
At The Ohm Store, I have the pleasure of spending a significant amount of time with a lot of instruments. I get to hear how they open, how long they sustain, how their overtones move, and how they fit into real practice.
I curated this collection with the same spirit as that bookstore shelf. You will find a few classics, a few newer pieces, and a few choices that I think may be useful or inspiring in your life and practice. I also made special prices for this collection tonight.

A few notes from me
|
|
The Dragon Gong, 27 Inch Bronze Gong 0013
Special price: $1,499.00
This is a one-of-a-kind temple-style Nepali gong with a dragon design across the face. You get the visual presence of a ceremonial gong and a bronze body that can anchor a room.
|
|
|
The Tree of Life Bowl
Special price: $309.00
This 6 inch bell bronze bowl is one of the most popular fourth-octave bowls we have ever made. I have played one every day for years because it is easy to reach for, quick to open, and clear enough to become part of a daily rhythm.
|
|
|
The Saturn Bowl
Special price: $579.00
This is the perfect size to be the only singing bowl you ever own. It also gives you a strong starting point for playing a bowl on the body. My favorite way to use it is lying down and playing it gently on the chest or belly.
|
|
|
The Extra Large Burma Bell
Special price: $315.00$685.00
These are unique, heavy bronze bells with an ultra-bright and stable tone. They add a clear point of sound to a session and hold their presence in a way that feels different from a bowl or gong.
|
|
|
36 Inch Ohm Wind Gong
Special price: $1,599.00$1,899.00
This is a foundational gong that took us a year to create. We partnered with a small making group in China that focuses on specialty gongs and cymbals, and the result is a large-format instrument with a wide wash and a dependable build.

|
|
Second Song 7 Bowl Set
Special price: $2,100.00$4,272.00
We have two of these sets at our Texas warehouse. This set gives you a dynamic range of tones, with fundamentals and overtones that can move from roughly 90 to 1,000 Hz. You can build a dense wall of sound with these bowls, and I love how much range they give a practitioner.
|
|
|
The Aurora Bowl
Special price: $1,199.00$1,444.00
This 14 inch extra-large bowl has a slightly flared edge that helps release its deep sound into the room. It is a strong choice when you want a larger bowl with a low fundamental, a broad feel, and a long decay.
|
|
|
The Fire Horse
Special price: $895.00
This is a visual masterpiece on an heirloom singing bowl. We have never made one this intricate and resonant, and we can hardly keep it available. The hand-painted design sits on an 8.5 inch bronze bowl with rich overtones and a strong singing response.
|
|
|
8.75 Inch D Tone 3rd Octave Bronze 0898
Special price: $588.60$840.85
This bowl makes me stop and look twice. The intricacy of the painting and the resonance of the singing bowl belong together here. You receive the exact one-of-one bowl, an 8.75 inch D pure tone bronze bowl with a third-octave fundamental.
|
|
|
The Double Chalice Bowl
Special price: $479.50$685.00
These are the original versions of what has now become six different Double Chalice options. The perfect fifth interval has become a favorite for practitioners who want to walk through a room during a session while carrying a clean, stable interval.
|
|
|
Four Mallet Special Bundle x Dragonfly Percussion
Special price: $299.00
You can create more range from the bowls you already own by changing the mass, texture, and velocity of the mallet. This bundle gives you several ways to invite a bowl to sing, strike, open, and reveal different timbres.
|
|
|
Handmade Singing Bowl Bag
Special price: $99.00
These bags are handmade in Nepal, and they are simple, sturdy, and practical. They are a wonderful way to carry your bowls, and I even use one to move bowls from room to room at home.
|
|
|
Blue Serenity Wind Chime
Special price: $299.00
We make wind chimes from the perspective of Nepali singing bowl makers. This one is visually beautiful, balanced in size, and tuned for a clear sound that can live inside a room or near a quiet outdoor space.
|
|
|
Earth Echo Swing Chime
Special price: $395.00
This swing chime opens a totally new dimension of sound. The tones are melodic and spacious, and the motion of the instrument makes the sound feel active in the room.
|
|
|
Sunrise Flow Swing Chime
Special price: $395.00
This swing chime has a warm pentatonic spread across two octaves. It gives you a moving field of tone that works especially well when you want something lighter, melodic, and easy to place in a session.
|
|
|
The Ohm Deep Rim Bronze Trio
Special price: $1,699.00$1,999.00
These bowls are made to carry extra weight and extra thickness at the rim. That added mass gives the set more sustain, more overtone activity, and a larger sound than you would expect from three bowls of these sizes.
|
|
|
Tibetan Sounds Sanctuary Bundle
Special price: $795.00$1,550.00
This is the number one set we have ever made. It features the Jupiter Bowl, which is the quintessential Ohm Store bowl, along with the supporting pieces that make it a complete starting point for a serious home or practitioner setup.
