Superior Quality Medium-Size Antique Thadobati Singing Bowl – F#4

This is a superior quality medium-size Antique Thadobati Singing Bowl in excellent condition.  It has a thick high-sided wall and a well-defined grooved lip.  There are circles at its centre, and decorative bands of dots encircling the outer rim, with lightly incised bands below.  The upper inch of wall is smooth and contrasts with the hammered surface lower down.

The fundamental note is a very nice middle octave F#4 (361Hz – 365Hz) when struck with a padded mallet or played around the rim with a ringer.  The fundamental varies slightly depending upon where on the wall the bowl is struck.

This is a fine example of the Thadobati bowl form. It has a bright golden bronze colour, and is structurally sound and clean.

A Tibetan silk brocade bowl cushion and a double-ended teak and suede ringer are included in the price.
