£110 per item

The chime of the orin (Buddhist bell), is often heard during Buddhist rituals and ceremonies, serving to enhance the practitioners’ focus or calm their mind.
This travel-sized orin is paired with a versatile folding stand made from washi, hand-crafted Japanese paper. The stand also transforms into a carry case allowing the orin to be transported with ease and used in various settings.
To produce the bell’s chime, circulate the natural stone pendulum along the orin‘s inner wall just above the midpoint. The pendulum is crafted from hematite, a well-balanced stone that is associated with a strong sense of vitality, as well as attributes such as success, winning, confidence, and courage.
This travel-sized orin is also available in black.

Please do not hit the orin harder than necessary to avoid breakage.
The pendulum is made from natural stone and can break.
Can get very hot in direct light.
Please do not use other than as an orin bell.
Made from copper alloy.
