Weight 1 lb 9 ½ oz. (727 grams). Size 20 x 7.5 cm (8 x 3 inches)
A rare 18th century lingam bowl with a rather lovely low profile. This bowl has seen a lot of use over the years and a certain amount of wear and tear is evident, particularly on the floor of the basin. But don’t let that put you off as this is still a beautiful bowl with a glorious middle C voice. It will also produced a stunning perfect concert pitch C#4 (277Hz) with a different suede ringer. It is very responsive and easy to play.
This bowl has an attractive golden bronze colour and very smooth clean walls. It has an a level triangulated lip with some decorative bands below the outer rim, and the centre features a rare semi-lingam…a rounded mound that is matched by a navel underneath.
A Tibetan silk brocade bowl cushion and ringer are included in the price.
