ESSENCE

I am the glass that passed through fire and became light. When you've been circling the same questions, the same patterns, the same stuck places—I am the frequency that says: there is another way to see this. Not escape. Not bypass. But a wider lens, held steady by the weight of your own bones. This bowl carries Andara's luminous presence into the deepest octave, where vision meets ground.

THE ELEMENT

Andara is a form of natural volcanic glass composed primarily of silicon dioxide, similar in structure to obsidian but distinguished by its vivid, translucent colors—greens, blues, golds, purples—often with swirling inclusions and an almost luminous quality. First recognized in 1967 near Mount Shasta in Northern California's High Sierra region, Andara emerged from high-energy volcanic deposits rich in complex mineral mixtures. Some analyses indicate the presence of over seventy trace elements, including gold, silver, titanium, and platinum, creating a unique mineral signature unlike any other glass.

The modern story of Andara begins with a medicine woman known as Lady Nellie, who recognized these glassy stones as tools for healing and consciousness work. Through her Choctaw heritage and shamanic practice, she established Andara as an ally for clearing stagnant energy, protecting the aura, and accelerating personal transformation. Unlike minerals with ancient documented histories, Andara's lineage is contemporary—a crystal companion for the current era of awakening.

When Andara is infused into quartz crystal through Divine Bowls' proprietary process, its complex mineral signature becomes molecularly integrated during formation—not applied as a surface coating, but woven into the structure that vibrates. This creates resonance patterns unique to Andara-infused instruments: practitioners and listeners often describe rapid shifts in perception, enhanced intuition, and a sense of expanded presence. The glass-like quality that makes Andara visually captivating translates into sound that feels equally luminous—bright, dynamic, alive.

THE FREQUENCY

This bowl sounds in A at 214 Hz, resonating with the Third Eye chakra in the Western diatonic system. The A frequency carries the energetic quality of intuition, wisdom, and vision, vibrating through your pelvis, hips, and lower spine—the foundational structures that connect you to earth. In the Cycle of Fifths system, this frequency also relates to the Throat chakra, adding a dimension of truthful expression to its visionary qualities.

When Andara's reputation for expanded perception meets this Third Eye frequency, something interesting happens: the bowl invites vision while the deep third-octave tone keeps you grounded. You might notice insights arriving not as abstract thoughts but as felt knowing—wisdom that registers in your body before your mind catches up. This is seeing that stays connected to the earth beneath your feet.

THE TUNING

This bowl resonates at 214 Hz. Using A=440 as reference, it plays A-50 cents. Using A=432 as reference, this same frequency is A-17 cents.

This bowl is categorized as Grounding Tuning because its frequency falls below the A=432 range, producing an even deeper, more anchoring quality. These frequencies have an inward-drawing character—sounds that settle rather than stimulate. The grounding nature complements Andara's high-vibrational reputation beautifully: where Andara might otherwise feel activating or expansive, this deep frequency provides ballast. Good for deep energetic work, calming active minds, supporting children through transitions, or anyone who needs profound grounding while remaining open to insight.

(For fine adjustment, adding water to the bowl lowers the pitch slightly—a technique some use to dial in precise intervals when playing with other instruments.)

THE SIZE

At 10 inches, this bowl produces third-octave tones with very long sustain—meaning each strike continues resonating for an extended period, allowing the sound to settle deeply into the body and space. The deep, penetrating volume makes it ideal for large group settings, ceremonial work, retreat centers, and spaces where sound needs to fill a room. It also serves beautifully in smaller contexts where you want the frequency to be felt as much as heard: therapy rooms, yoga studios, or a corner of your living room dedicated to stillness.

This size allows Andara's luminous, transformational quality to express with substantial presence while the third-octave resonance naturally targets the deep body—pelvis, hips, sitting bones, and foundational connection to earth. The combination creates an experience of expansion that remains rooted.

WORKING WITH THIS BOWL

Reach for this bowl when you need to see clearly but keep your feet on the ground. Before important decisions, during creative blocks, in moments of transition when the old way no longer fits but the new way hasn't revealed itself—this is when Andara's visionary quality meets the grounding frequency most powerfully.

Begin simply: sit or stand where you can feel your feet, your sitting bones, your connection to the surface beneath you. Strike or rim the bowl and let the sound fill the space around you. Notice where the vibration lands in your body—often the hips and lower spine respond first to this frequency. As the tone sustains, allow your attention to soften. You're not trying to see anything specific. You're creating conditions for clarity to arrive on its own terms. Some people place the bowl on the floor during meditation, letting the vibration travel upward through the body. Others use it to open team meetings, clear a room between clients, or mark the transition from work mode to home presence.

Each Divine Bowls singing bowl includes a pure quartz mallet wrapped in premium silicone for optimal resonance, plus a silicone O-ring for stable playing on hard surfaces. Every bowl is formed in a single seamless vessel from 99.995% pure quartz—no welds, no weak points—built to last lifetimes of use.

INVITATION

This bowl doesn't ask you to be anything other than what you already are. It just offers a wider lens—the kind that helps you see the pattern you've been standing inside. Andara's luminous, transformational quality meets the deepest grounding frequency here, creating space for vision that doesn't untether you from your body. For the executive before the decision that changes everything. For the parent who needs to see their child's struggle from a new angle. For anyone who's been circling the same question and needs the ground to hold them while they finally look up. This is the bowl that says: you can see clearly and stay rooted. Both. At once.
