This Antique Mani Singing bowl has a middle A (431Hz) fundamental when struck or played around the rim with a wooden ringer. It has a strong voice with a good beat, and unlike some, it’s responsive and easy to play around the rim.
It has all the typical characteristics of this ancient bowl form…flat bottom, bulbous tapering walls, inward-facing lip, and decorative bands forming a collar around the outer rim and below. There are concentric circles at its centre, including an eye.
It is in good structural condition, clean and stain-free. A nice example of this ancient bowl form!
Antique Mani bowls are generally thought to be between 200 and 400 years old and are now extremely rare.
A ringer is included in the price.
