Antique Jambati Singing Bowl.  G#2 & Eb4 (Throat & Solar Plexus Chakras)

Antique Jambati Singing Bowl.  G#2 & Eb4 (Throat & Solar Plexus Chakras)
Weight 2.47 kilos (5 lb 7 ¼ oz).   Size 30 x 13.5 cm (approx. 11 ¾ x 5 ¼ inches)

 

This is a large and rather lovely antique Jambati singing bowl with a multi-harmonic voice.  The fundamental struck note is a low second octave G# (102Hz) that is sometimes accompanied by a middle octave Eb (303Hz) when played around the rim with a suede ringer.  A wooden ringer will produce a higher D5 (607Hz).  It will also produce fountains if played with a little water inside.

 

 

This is an attractive and well-forged bowl with finely hammered walls that have been worn smooth with use over the years.  It is in good structural condition, and has a nice golden colour and is free of stains and blemishes.

 

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

Listen: (2 struck notes and 2 played notes, suede then wood ringer)

 

Note:  This antique bowl is part of my original collection, and having visited Nepal 7 times in the last 18 months I cannot stress enough how hard it has become to source genuine antiques of this size and quality, with bowls over 11 inches (28cm) now almost impossible to find.
