This mallet is articulate and light with a clear, bright tone. The flexible fiberglass handle provides quick response and easy touch on both cast-spun and hand-hammered tranquility bowls. The short length feels easily maneuverable and comfortable in the hand. It elicits a gorgeous full tone on small bowls as well as a transformative “temple bell” sound on larger metal singing bowls.
“These inviters are a case study in simple pleasures. I feel like I’m hearing my tranquility bowls for the first time.” -Benjamin Irons
