Rare Antique Remuna Singing Bowl – Wonderful Concert Pitch Eb3 (156Hz)

Antique Remuna Singing Bowl.  Note Eb3 (156Hz) Solar Plexus Chakra

Weight 555 grams (1 lb 3 ½ oz).  Size 17 x 9.5 cm (6 ¾ x 3 ¾ inches)

This is a nice example of this uncommon and sought-after bowl form with an incredibly beautiful concert pitch third octave Eb fundamental (156Hz) when struck with a padded mallet or played with a suede ringer.  The rim note changes to a middle A if a wooden ringer is employed.  It is extremely responsive and a delight to hold and play.

This bowl has finely beaten walls, now smooth, and an interesting  circular raised mound at its centre, with a matching depression underneath.  The single decorative line that once encircled the rim has virtually disappeared with the passage of time.  This bowl is in excellent structural condition for its age.  It is clean and has a nice golden colour.

I have yet to come across a Remuna bowl that doesn’t impress with its ease of play and purity of sound…and this bowl is no exception.

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