Tibetan tingshas - or hand cymbals - are rung to start or end a meditation - a teaching - or simply to create a moment of quiet concentration. Each hand-tuned cymbal is made exclusively for dZi by the Tibetan community of Lingtsang in northern India where traditional metal crafts support the entire community. The solid metal cymbals are decorated with raised dragon and lotus blossom emblems. The cymbal’s heavy weight enhances their soothing chime. Strung together with black leather cord. (3 diameter)
