Rare Antique 10” Jambati Singing Bowl – D4 (291Hz)

Antique Jambati Singing Bowl  D4 (291Hz) Sacral Chakra

Weight 1.83 kilos (4lb 0 ½ oz).   Size 25.5 x 10.5 cm (approx. 10 x 4 ¼ inches)

This is not a typical Jambati bowl…it’s shallower than most and its wall is more curved, and its wide, grooved, triangulated lip and decorative collar are more boldly defined.  Nonetheless it’s more like a Jambati than any of the other major bowl forms.

Its fundamental struck note is a rather beautiful middle D (291Hz) with a long sustain.  The rim note is the same with a suede ringer, but if a wooden one is used it changes to a powerful and penetrating fifth octave A (878Hz) with a long sustain.

This uncommon and graceful antique bowl has been expertly crafted and is in great condition; clean and structurally sound.  It also has a very attractive deep golden bronze colour.

A Tibetan silk brocade bowl cushion and a ringer are included in the price.
