Antique Tibetan Lingam Singing Bowl.  G note (Throat Chakra)
Weight 2 lb 9 oz (1.16 kilos).   21 x 7.5 cm (approx. 8 ¼ x 3 inches)

This is a large and characterful Lingam bowl with an exceptionally nice virtually concert pitch fundamental note, a strong G sharp.  The struck note is very sweet and it’s an easy bowl to play around the rim.  The note is the same G sharp whether struck or played with a ringer.

This bowl is in good condition for its age and has a strong physical presense.  It has an excellent pronounced inward-facing and boldly ribbed rim, and a nice pointed lingam that is defined and surrounded by engraved circles.   The exterior walls are smooth at the rim and attractively hammer-marked lower down and underneath.  The bottom is flat, with no navel.

An older Lingam bowl, probably 19^th century, with bags of character and the look and feel of age!

Listen (2 struck notes and 2 played notes with suede and wooden ringers)
