Antique Bell-Shaped Tibetan Singing Bowl.  A Note (Third Eye Chakra)
Weight 1 lb 13 ¼ oz (831g).   18 x 9 cm (approx. 7 x 3 ½ inches)

This is a medium-weight bell-shaped Thadobati Singing Bowl (circa 19^th Century) with a level lip and fine, slightly splayed, walls.  The bowl is in very good condition for its age, with barely a mark or blemish.

It is distinguished by having an unusual and very nice third octave A fundamental note when stuck with a mallet or played around the rim with a suede ringer.  With a little water inside this bowl also has fountain capabilities.

Very few bowls sing an A note, and those that do are often small Manipuri, so this old Thadobati will appeal greatly to anyone assembling a Chakra set.

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

Listen: (2 struck notes and 1 played note)
