Antique Jambati Singing and Fountain Bowl. Bb3 Note (Crown Chakra)
Weight 1 lb 13 oz (841g). Size 20.5 x 9 cm (approx. 8 x 3 ½ inches)
This is a fabulous antique Jambati Singing Bowl of superior quality in an excellent state of preservation. It’s a very pretty bowl too, with finely hammered walls that provide lots of surface interest inside and out. It has an excellent level lip, and two incised bands form a decorative collar around the outer rim.
With a diameter of just 8 inches this bowl is exceptionally small (and light) for a Jambati, and it will appeal greatly to those who love this bowl form but struggle to hold and play the typically larger and heavier bowls.
This is a very responsive and easy bowl to play. The fundamental note is a lovely third octave Bb with a frequency of 229-230Hz. The rim note is the same.
This bowl will also produce nice fountains if played around the rim with a little water inside. A ringer is included in the price.
A fabulous small example of this popular bowl form!
