Thick, Heavy & Large 11 ¼” Antique Jambati Singing Bowl – Pulsating B2/C3 Fundamental

Antique Jambati Singing Bowl.   Notes: B2/C3 (Crown & Root Chakras)

Weight 5 lb 5 ½ oz. (2.43 kilos).   Size 28.5 x 11.5 cm (11 ¼ x 4 ½ inches)

This large antique flat-bottomed Jambati singing bowl has unusually thick walls and is therefore quite heavy for its size.  It has a lightly grooved lip, decorative bands encircling the outer rim, and circles at its centre.

It has an interesting and beautiful voice when struck with a padded mallet, as the pulsating fundamental fluctuates between a second octave B (126Hz) and a third octave C (130Hz).  The rim note is much the same but can switch to a middle G (385Hz) depending upon the type of ringer employed.

This is a very nice example of this heavy bowl type, structurally sound, clean and stain-free.

A Tibetan silk brocade cushion, a padded striker, and a suede ringer are all included in the price.
