Made from the same metals as the bowls - namely Iron, Lead, Zinc, Copper, Silver and Gold, Tibetan Buddhists would prepare for meditation by using these Tingshaws.

By gently tapping them together they produce a clear, pure and cleansing sound which can be used to focus the mind before and after meditation. They can also be used to clear bad vibrations in the room (Feng Shui) and to clear the aura and Chakras.
Tingshaws are supplied with a bag and instructions.
