Jambati Singing Bowl, 26 cm

The big one. Curved wall, inward lip, a great deal of metal for the diameter — which is what buys the depth and the length of the note.

About this product
Jambati bowls are the large curved-wall form, and they are the hardest to raise because the metal work-hardens faster the further it is drawn. A bowl this size takes a team the better part of two days and far more annealing cycles than a small one.
The payoff is at the bottom of the range: a fundamental near low C that arrives in the room before you consciously hear it. Rimmed slowly it builds over five or six seconds and then holds.
One of these exists. Handwork cannot be reordered to specification, so when it is gone the next one will be a different bowl with a different note.
How it was made
Hand-raised, extended annealing — Patan, Lalitpur.
Sourced from Patan metalworking workshop.
Singing Bowls & Ritual — Patan, Lalitpur. See the rest of this category.
Producer descriptions on this site are sourcing categories rather than named suppliers. Named-supplier disclosure is available to trade buyers under NDA — ask when you request a quote.
Care & keeping
Dry cloth. Support the base when moving it — three kilos of bronze does not forgive a dropped edge.
