Top Quality Antique Naga/Pedestal Singing & Healing bowl – Superb B3 & F5 – Inscription

Antique Naga Singing Bowl.  Note B3 & F5 (Crown & Heart Chakras)

Weight 996 grams (2 lb 3 oz).  Size 19 x 13 cm (7 ½ x 5 inches)

This is a top quality large antique Naga or Pedestal Singing Bowl with 2 fabulous voices…B3 (251Hz) when struck with a padded mallet or played around the rim with a suede ringer.  The rim note changes to a powerful, penetrating, and almost perfect pitch fifth octave F (700Hz) with a wooden ringer.  It’s a very responsive bowl and easy to play.

This antique bowl benefits from a long dot-punched inscription set between two lotus blossoms on the outer wall; a fair indication of the high esteem in which it was held by a former keeper. 

It has the typical shape of this interesting and now quite rare bowl type, with a grooved lip and multiple decorative bands around the outer rim.   It is in excellent structural condition, clean and stain-free.

A double-ended teak and suede ringer is included in the price.
