Large Ultabati Singing & Fountain Bowl – Low D Note
Old Himalayan Ultabati Singing & Fountain Bowl. D Note (Sacral Chakra)
Weight 4 lb 3 ¼ oz (1.91 kilos). 28 x 13.5 cm (approx. 11 x 5 ½ inches)
This is a large old Ultabati singing bowl with a wonderful and very low fundamental 2nd octave D note. It sings the same beautiful note whether struck with a padded mallet or played around the rim with a heavy suede ringer, but other subtle overtones are always present. With a little water inside, this bowl will also readily produce splashy fountains. Like all large Ultabati bowls it has massive vibrational energy that can be felt physically at a distance. The excellent and clean condition of this bowl suggests that it has served some ceremonial or musical purpose during its lifetime.
This handsome bowl has the classic Ultabati caldron-like form with its fine walls and out-turned downward-sloping lip. The golden splayed and incised collar contrasts beautifully with the mottled dark brown ‘leopard spot’ surface of the outer basin, while its smooth golden interior features two groups of boldly incised concentric circles at its centre. This is a very handsome and impressive bowl with unique sonic qualities.
