Tamayura Rin® is a beautifully designed bell with a soft, rounded shape and a graceful swaying motion when played.

Suspended by a single slender stand, this bell produces a longer and more resonant tone compared to traditional bowl-shaped bells.

It is inspired by the "Rin", a traditional Japanese instrument used in Buddhist rituals. A Rin is typically placed on a household altar and struck during prayers or moments of reflection. It plays an important role in Japanese spiritual and cultural practices, offering a clear, calming sound that signals focus and reverence.

Since its release in 2004, Tamayura Rin® has been cherished by many people. It was originally created in response to a simple wish: “I want a compact Rin that produces a beautiful sound.”

The idea of inverting the traditional shape led to a completely new design. With the help of local craftspeople and repeated refinement, the elegant and gently swaying Tamayura Rin® was born.

In recognition of its unique design and soothing tone, it received the Good Design Award (Japan) in 2005.（View award details）

Today, Tamayura Rin® is used not only for traditional prayer, but also in meditation, yoga, relaxation, and spa settings — bringing moments of calm and mindfulness to everyday life.
