Antique Manipuri Singing Bowl.  D3 Note (Sacral Chakra)
Weight   2lb 0 oz (887g).   21 x 6.5 cm (approx. 8 ¼ x 2 ½ inches)

 

This is a nice quality large antique Manipuri singing bowl with thick walls and interesting decorative features including a circle of sun motifs (dot within a circle) at its centre and around the lip, and a band of ritual gashes or cuts forming a band below the outer rim.

 

The struck note is an excellent third octave D. The rim note is the same D3 if played with a suede ringer, but it changes to a fifth octave G if a wooden one is used.

 

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

 

A very nice Manipuri singing bowl in a good state of preservation.
