The Burma Bell

The Burma Bell
The Burma Bell is a handcrafted ceremonial instrument traditionally used in temples and monastic settings across the Himalayan Region.
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 5,000 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.
Your Bell is Designed to be struck once with a mallet or soft striker..
This instrument is part of a limited initial release from The Ohm Store. Quantities are constrained due to the small-scale nature of the traditional foundries involved in its production. No mechanized mass production is used.
Your bell will come with it's own padded striker, 25 available now.
