Exquisite Rare Small Antique Lingam Singing Bowl – F4 & B5 – Ritual Gashes

Antique Lingam Singing Bowl.  Notes: F4 & B5 (heart & Crown Chakras)
Weight 439 grams (0 lb 15 ½ oz).   Size 14 x 7 cm (5 ½ x 2 ¾ inches)

This is an exquisite small antique Lingam Singing Bowl circa 1800 in excellent structural condition, clean and blemish free.  It has a particularly lovely shape, a fabulous lingam at its centre surrounded by circles, and a matching yoni or navel underneath.  It has a sheered lip encircled by a single fine line, and unusually there are decorative circles around the middle of the inner wall.  A band of ritual gashes around the outer wall is a rare and interesting feature, seldom seen on a lingam bowl.

The fundamental note is a middle F4 (347/8Hz) when struck with a padded mallet or played around the rim with a suede ringer.  The rim note changes to a fifth octave B5 (1005Hz) with a wooden ringer. 

A rare and exceptional small antique Lingam Singing Bowl!

A Tibetan silk brocade bowl cushion, and a double-ended teak and suede ringer are included in the price.
