# Tibetan Singing Bowls
Used for meditation and sound healing, these bowls produce a multi-harmonic resonance.
## The Composition
Legend states they are made of seven metals representing celestial bodies:
Gold (Sun), Silver (Moon), Mercury (Mercury), Copper (Venus), Iron (Mars), Tin (Jupiter), Lead (Saturn).
## Acoustics
When the rim is rubbed, 'friction-induced vibration' creates standing waves in the metal.
