Experience the clear, resonant sound of traditional Tibetan Tingsha Cymbals, a sacred percussion instrument traditionally used in Tibetan Buddhist practices, meditation, prayer, and ceremonial rituals.

Tingsha, also known as Tibetan meditation cymbals, consist of two small metal cymbals connected by a cord. When gently struck together, they produce a bright, sustained tone that can be used to mark the beginning or end of meditation, accompany prayer practices, or create a peaceful atmosphere.

This pair features a traditional antique-style metal finish with a simple, timeless appearance. The compact design makes the cymbals convenient to keep beside a meditation cushion, altar, singing bowl, or other spiritual practice accessories.

Beyond their traditional religious use, Tingsha are also appreciated by meditation practitioners, yoga teachers, sound practitioners, and collectors of Himalayan musical instruments.
