The Dizi Chinese Bamboo Flute is the flagship transverse flute of Chinese music.

Played for more than two thousand years, it holds a central place in traditional opera as well as in classical instrumental ensembles, and it's still taught in Chinese conservatoriums today.

Its body is carved from natural bamboo, recognisable by its visible grain and reddish brown tone, and reinforced along its full length with black binding rings that strengthen the bamboo and protect it from cracking over time, a technique inherited from traditional craftsmanship.

What fundamentally sets the dizi apart from a Western transverse flute sits between the mouthpiece and the finger holes: a hole covered with a thin membrane called the dimo.

This membrane vibrates as the player blows, giving the instrument its distinctive tone, warm, resonant and instantly recognisable, quite different from the pure sound of a Western flute.

It's this unique sound that has carried the dizi's reputation well beyond China, where it now captivates musicians looking for new tonal colours.

The instrument has six finger holes for playing the melody, regardless of the key selected at purchase. Only the length and diameter of the bamboo change from one key to another, while the playing method and number of holes stay the same.

When in doubt about which key to choose, the G key is the most commonly recommended option for beginners, thanks to its compact size, comfortable finger spacing and warm, mellow tone.

The blowing end is finished in black lacquer, while the opposite end is capped with silver metal. A gold engraved plaque bearing a Chinese poetic inscription decorates the body near the mouthpiece, a decorative practice once reserved for flutes made by master craftsmen and now common across dizi of all grades. A red Chinese knot with a tassel is attached near the lower end; in Chinese culture, red symbolises luck and prosperity, making this more than just a decorative touch.

This model includes a practical feature for travel. A silver metal ferrule at the centre of the flute allows it to separate into two equal sections. Joined together, they form the full playing length of the instrument, with the same sound and playability as a traditional one piece dizi. Separated, they fit into a compact, zippered hard case printed with Chinese calligraphy, making the flute far easier to carry day to day.

In these traditional ensembles, the dizi is often paired with other ancient Chinese wind instruments such as the Traditional Chinese Xun, whose deep, terracotta tone offers a warm counterpoint to the dizi's bright bamboo sound.

Schumann Waves Generator 7.83 Hz

$48.00

Optimise your living space ambience with this Schumann Waves Generator 7.83 Hz.

Designed to stably emit the Earth's fundamental resonance at 7.83 Hz, this compact device uses a built-in dual antenna to harmonise your environment.

Ideal for the office, bedroom or relaxation studios, it helps establish an atmosphere conducive to relaxation and mental clarity. Simple power supply via USB Type-C.

WHAT IS THE SCHUMANN FREQUENCY USED FOR?

The Schumann resonance (7.83 Hz) corresponds to the natural vibrational frequency of the Earth, often called its "heartbeat".

This signal interacts directly with the environment to help you connect to the rhythm of nature:

Harmonisation of the environment: Ideal for neutralising the atmosphere of enclosed rooms and establishing a calm and soothing ambience.
Support for relaxation: Promotes a serene state of mind, helping the body and mind release tensions accumulated daily.
Improvement of the living space: Creates optimal conditions to recharge, whether at home, during a meditation session or in a well-being space.

FEATURES OF OUR SCHUMANN RESONANCE GENERATOR

Fixed Frequency of High Precision: Emits continuously at the exact frequency of 7.83 Hz (Schumann Resonance), without any complex adjustments needed.
Pure Sine Wave Signal: Equipped with a dedicated integrated circuit to generate a stable, clean sine wave without harmonic distortion.
Built-in Dual-sided Antenna: Helical coil transmitter maximising signal dispersion in the immediate environment.
Advanced Integrated Protection: Equipped with an LDO regulator to guarantee optimal protection against overcurrents and overvoltages
Compact Format and Ready to Use: Powered by a standard Type-C (DC 5V) port, easy to place discreetly on a desk or a nightstand.

USER MANUAL OF THE 7.83 HZ FREQUENCY GENERATOR

Plug the USB Type-C cable (not provided) into the port of the generator (marked USB1).
Connect the other end to a stable DC 5V power source (power adapter, computer USB port or power bank).
The generator immediately starts emitting the 7.83 Hz frequency autonomously.

Note: This Schumann resonance generator operates in complete silence. The human ear can only perceive sounds between 20 Hz and 20,000 Hz. At 7.83 Hz, the Schumann frequency sits well below this audible threshold, meaning the device produces no sound whatsoever during operation.

WHERE TO PLACE THE SCHUMANN RESONATOR?

Workspaces and offices: To promote a calm ambience conducive to concentration and efficiency.
Bedrooms and rest areas: To create a relaxing environment conducive to unwinding at the end of the day.
Yoga, therapy or meditation studios: To harmonise the space and support physical and mental relaxation.

Tibetan Singing Bell

$109.00

Spread positive energy around you with our Tibetan Singing Bell

This Buddhist ritual set consists of a ghanta bell and a vajra sceptre, both crafted from copper using traditional casting techniques.

The bell features meticulous ornamentation, including intricate carvings and the sculpted face of Prajnaparamita, the deity embodying the perfection of wisdom. The vajra is characterised by its symmetrical structure representing the thunderbolt and the diamond, symbolising the indestructible nature of the mind.

In tantric practice, these objects are used together to represent the union of wisdom, embodied by the bell held in the left hand, and compassion, represented by the vajra held in the right.

The sound of a Tibetan bell is renowned for its rich harmonics and long resonance. Sonically, its metal composition produces complex, soothing vibrations. Symbolically, this pure tone represents the voice of the Buddha awakening the mind to ultimate reality. Spiritually, it acts as a meditation tool, aiding concentration, dispelling negative thoughts, and harmonising inner energies during rituals.

Yinqing Guiding Chime

$32.00

The yinqing, or Guiding Chime or Hand Gong, refers to a ritual percussion instrument used primarily in Chinese Buddhism.

This instrument comes in the form of a small metallic cup made of copper, fixed to the end of a thin, curved metal rod, which is itself fitted into a handle. To operate it, you hold the handle in one hand and strike the edge of the cup with a small, thin metal mallet.

This produces a clear, crystalline sound, which is very penetrating and prolonged.

THE GUIDE OF RITES

As its name indicates, with yin meaning to guide or lead, it serves to set the rhythm during liturgical chants and the recitation of sutras. It signals to practitioners when to begin, when to stop, or when to change movements, such as standing up, kneeling, or prostrating.

THE PUNCTUATION

It marks important transitions during a ritual. Its pure sound is considered capable of calming the mind and facilitating concentration during meditation.

DAILY USE

It is commonly found in Buddhist temples, but also in home shrines where practitioners use it to mark the beginning and end of their personal prayers. In summary, it is the instrument that ensures the synchronization and solemnity of Buddhist ceremonies, acting as a sacred metronome that helps participants stay in harmony.

Diameter: 5 cm (bell cup)
Rod length: 26 cm (total length including the handle and rod)
