Large 11 ¾ ” Antique Jambati Singing Bowl – Pulsating Concert Pitch F#4

Antique Jambati Singing Bowl.   Note: F#4 (Heart Chakra)

Weight 4 lb 12 ¼ oz. (2.16 kilos).   Size 30 x 13.5 cm (11 ¾ x 5 ¼ inches)

This is a large and superbly forge antique Jambati Singing Bowl with finely hammered walls, a triangulated lip, circles at its centre and decorative bands around and below the outer rim. 

The fundamental note is an excellent and pulsating concert pitch middle F# (321Hz) when struck with a padded mallet or played around the rim.  The fundamental is sometimes accompanied by a subtle B2/Bb2 harmonic.

This substantial singing bowl has a lovely shape and is in excellent structural condition with a fine coating of grime and aged copper oxidization that could be removed if desired.  I personally think it adds character and reflects its antiquity.

A Tibetan silk brocade cushion, a padded striker, and a ringer are all included in the price.
