Hello my name is Tok and I am the owner /founder of singing bowl sound and craft. My passion for Nepalese and Tibetan handicraft was passed down to me from my father. My father was a trader and an enthusiast of Tibetan handicraft and singing bowl from as long as I can remember. He is considered as one the first person to have introduced singing bowl in the Nepalese handicraft industry some 30 years ago. I vividly recall my father collecting old singing bowls and old Tibetan antiques when most of the people were still ignorant of their value. Because of this I also developed a keen interest in these products and I was drawn towards them like a moth is drawn towards the light. I felt a certain connection with these handicraft products especially singing bowl due to my father’s influence and I still feel the same way. Even after 20 years, its almost like the spark never left.
Well that was my back story. Now coming to the present I am still following my passion and my family’s business of handicraft. The only difference is that now I am a lot more experienced and better at identifying the good from the bad and the best from the good. I have been following the Nepalese handicraft industry for two decades and I have seen almost everything there is to see, both the good and the bad. Therefore, I have become an advocate of good and sustainable handicraft trade and always promote safe and sustainable practices. This has made me a better person and a better human being as I make sure that the products we sell are free of child labor and all the raw material used are sourced locally and in a sustainable manner.
Our business provides direct employment to more than 50 families which ensures their and their family’s well being. We have a solid relation with our artists and our craftsmen/craftswomen from over 10 years and the relation is still growing strong. I hope we can grow our business and provide employment to these families for many years to come.
