Cymbal diameter: 72 mm, cymbal case included

Both cymbals have a diameter of 72 mm. With this pair of cymbals, you get a high-quality sealable case that prevents damage to the cymbals. Each cymbal is engraved with Ashtamangala - 8 auspicious symbols:

The Precious Parasol.
The White Conch Shell.
The Two Golden Fish.
The Knot of Eternity.
The Vase of Great Treasures.
The Victory Banner.
The Lotus Flower.
The Eight Spoked Wheel.

Tingsha - cymbals are connected by a thin strip of leather and are attached through a hole in the raised center of each cymbal. When playing, we hit the edges of the cymbals perpendicular to each other and hold them in the air until they completely die, or we can move them around the space after the hit so that the sound resonates better. That's when their sound is the most piercing. The second way of playing consists in letting the cymbals hang freely in one plane a short distance from each other and gently moving them upwards to let them hit each other with only their own weight. Then their sound is calmer and quieter.


Cymbals are used for cleaning or neutralizing a space from emotional burdens or as an aid in meditation exercises, when their penetrating and inaudible sound helps to eliminate all other distractions of the mind, such as surrounding noises, thoughts, bodily sensations and the like. We also sound the cymbals when we are going to play the Tibetan bowls to interrupt the flow of thoughts and encourage concentration. We also end the Tibetan bowl game with cymbals.


The difference between the production of Tibetan bowls and cymbals lies in the fact that Tibetan bowls go through a beating process after being poured from the mold while hot, while cymbals remain in their molds until they cool down.
