ALBA SACRA
Alba Sacra means “sacred white.” This large 10-inch crystal singing bowl is glazed in an angelic white that seems to hold its own quiet light, finished with a gold rim that catches the room the way a candle catches a draft. Across its curved body, a soft iridescent shimmer drifts and shifts as you move around it—subtle flecks of color waking and fading like breath on glass.
At ten inches it has real presence: heavy enough to feel ceremonial in the hands, wide enough that the sound leaves it in a slow, enveloping wave rather than a strike. Part of the Seraphlume collection, a bowl to begin with and to return to.
Hold the mallet to the rim and the C4 -42ctuning answers with a warm, slightly lowered tone—a pitch that sits lower than the ear expects, like a hum felt in the chest before it is heard in the room.
The sustain is long and rounded, filling a space gradually instead of announcing itself, and the -42 cent offset gives it a soft, sinking gravity that feels less like performance and more like permission to rest. In sound healing, this tuning is often used to settle the nervous system, slow and deepen the breath, and draw a busy mind down into stillness—grounded, womb-like, quietly transcendent.
Mallet, sitting ring and case are included.
