Superb Rare 19th Century Lingam Singing Bowl – Lovely A3 (215Hz)


SOLD


Antique Lingam Singing Bowl. Note: A3 (Third Eye Chakra)

Weight 1.44 kilos (3 lb 2 oz).  Size 23.5 x 10 cm (9 ¼ x 4 inches)

This is a rare and particularly nice early 19th Century Lingam Singing Bowl with a lovely and uncommon third octave A3 fundamental (215Hz) when struck with a padded mallet or played around the rim with a suede ringer.

It has a graceful relatively low profile, a grooved triangulated lip with decorative bands encircling the outer rim, a large golden lingam at its centre surrounded by circles, and a deep navel or yoni underneath.  It is very nicely proportioned and the mottled hammer-marked surface to the outer wall is an attractive stand-out feature.

This bowl also benefits from a rare inscription on the outer wall, a fair indication of the high esteem in which it was held by a former keeper.

This lovely Lingam bowl is in exceptional condition, clean and free of stains, with a deep golden bronze colour and an aged patina.

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

Antique Lingam Singing Bowls are sacred musical vessels and the rarest and most sought-after of all Himalayan bowls.  They typically have diameters of between 5 and 7 inches (23 to 28 cm) so at 9 ¼ inches this one is exceptionally large.
