An atmospheric and tactile piece, this 19th century Chinese bronze singing or water bowl carries the weight of history in both its patina and form. Cast in solid bronze, its surface has developed a deep, natural oxidation over time, giving it a rich and authentic presence. Impressive large example.
Traditionally used in meditation and ritual practices, singing bowls produce a resonant, calming tone when struck or played, combining function, symbolism, and sculpture in one.
This example has a rounded, sculptural volume with subtle detailing on the rim and handles, highlighting both its craftsmanship and timeless simplicity. A piece that can be appreciated equally as an object of use, cultural artifact, or sculptural display. In general good vintage condition.
