This large Circa 1800 Jambati bowl has an excellent middle octave D (302Hz) fundamental whether struck with a padded mallet or played around the rim. The struck note has an exceptionally impressive long sustain. There is also a low second octave G harmonic.
This premium quality bowl shows evidence of a long life as might be expected, and any decorative features it might once have possessed have been all but worn away. However, it’s a very attractive bowl and its structural condition is good. It has particularly nice hammer markings and patina on the outer wall, and a beautiful smooth golden interior.
It also benefits from a very clear engraved inscription on the outer wall…a fair indication of the high esteem in which it was held by a former keeper.
A Tibetan silk brocade bowl cushion, a padded striker and a ringer all all included in the price.
