Fabulous Large 11 ½ Antique Jambati Singing Bowl – Eb3
SOLD
Antique Jambati Singing Bowl. Notes Eb3 & B4 (Solar Plexus & Crown Chakras)
Weight 2.23 kilos (4 lb 14 ½ oz). Size 29 x 14 cm (11 ½ x 5 ½ inches)
This is a fabulous large full-bodied antique Jambati Singing Bowl with a rounded bottom and finely hammered walls that make it relatively light for its size. It has a grooved and slightly inward-sloping triangulated lip, circles at its centre and boldly incised decorative bands encircling the outer rim.
The fundamental note is a lovely third octave Eb3 (159Hz) with a distinctive pulse and long sustain when struck with a padded mallet or played around the rim with a suede ringer. The rim note changes to a middle B4 (483Hz) with a wooden ringer.
The structural condition of this antique bowl is excellent. It is clean and virtually free of stains and blemishes, and has an attractive matt bronze color with an aged patina.
A Tibetan silk brocade cushion, padded striker and two ringers are all included in the price.
