Rare Tibetan Lingam Singing Bowl – Low B and Fountains!

Antique Naga Singing Bowl.  B Note (Crown Chakra)
Weight 1 lb 12 oz (794g).   20 x 7 cm (approx. 8 x 2 ¾ inches)

This large antique Tibetan Lingam singing bowl has a low B flat voice that is close to concert pitch, particularly when played around the rim with a heavy suede ringer (supplied).  With a little water inside this bowl will also produce good fountains.

This rare lingam singing bowl has a wide mouth and a low profile.  It is structurally sound and in excellent condition for its age.   It features an unusually large wide central lingam surrounded and defined by concentric circles, and a deep and perfectly formed navel underneath.  It has a strong slightly triangulated lip and a single incised decorative line forming a band below the outer rim.  The colour is an attractive antique silvery-gold with a patina that shows off the forging hammer marks to good effect.  It has the look and feel of age.

A heavy suede-covered teak ringer is included in the price.
