The Premium Etched style of the Zen Vedic Series uses precision laser etching to bring intricate Buddhist and Hindu artwork to bronze in a way that's nearly impossible to achieve by hand. The detail is fine, consistent, and elaborate, and each bowl carries that artwork alongside the warm, sustained voice the Vedic Series is built around.
The result is a bowl that earns a second look before you ever strike it, and a third one after you do. Whether it lives on an altar, finds its way into session work, or sits where it can simply be looked at, a Premium Etched bowl carries its presence in both directions, what you see and what you hear.
Etched Design
This Premium Etched Zen Vedic Series bowl features the thousand-armed Avalokiteshvara at the center of the inside, the bodhisattva of compassion standing within a radiant aureole of outstretched arms, framed by drifting clouds and a ring of Greek key meander. Encircling the central figure is a constellation of round medallions, alternating between the eight auspicious symbols and lotus rosettes set against rings of Tibetan mantra script, all woven together with delicate floral flourishes. The outside of the bowl carries a band of large astronomical medallions, each centered on a crescent moon cradled by a pair of open hands and surrounded by the phases of the moon, flanked by endless knots and scrolling clouds. Together, the iconography brings the boundless compassion of the thousand-armed Avalokiteshvara into dialogue with the cycles of the moon and the eight auspicious symbols, a bowl that layers Buddhist devotion with the rhythms of the cosmos across a single continuous surface of prayer.
About the Zen Vedic Series
This Premium Etched Zen Vedic Series bowl features a thousand-armed Avalokiteshvara at the center of the inside, the bodhisattva of compassion standing within a radiant halo of arms, framed by clouds and surrounded by ornate mandala wheels carrying deity seed syllables along the inner walls. The outside of the bowl is wrapped in alchemical lunar medallions, each one combining a crescent moon, upturned hands, and a triangle with stars, ringed by the phases of the moon. At the base sits a Metatron's Cube with chakra-colored nodes, framed by a Greek key meander pattern. Together, the iconography draws together Buddhist compassion, lunar magic, and Hermetic geometry, a bowl that brings together the boundless reach of Avalokiteshvara with the quieter rhythms of the moon and the underlying order of sacred geometry.
