The Double Chalice Bowl: G4/D5
Introducing the G/4D5 Double Chalice Bowl
This Double Chalice Bowl features a pairing of G4 and D5.
The G4 bowl, 5.2-5.5 inches in diameter, delivers a stable, resonant tone with strong presence and moderate sustain.
It sits firmly in the middle range, providing a clear and grounded anchor.
The D5 bowl, at 4.5 inches, brings an upper-register brilliance, creating a wide harmonic spread when played together.
This G4/D5 interval is open and energizing. It has more lift than our lower fifths (like C/G or E/B), yet retains all the consonant stability that makes the perfect fifth such a foundational musical relationship. The two tones lock easily, producing natural harmonic reinforcement and a gentle pulsing effect that can be felt as much as heard.
Each bowl is hand-forged from bell metal bronze in Kathmandu and chosen individually for pitch purity and resonance. Bowls ship directly from Nepal within one week of purchase.
Includes a striker. Only a handful of this pairing are available.
