Jambati
Jambati singing bowls are large, mostly ranging from 8 to 12 inches though antiques can be found up to 16 inches. They are characterized by sides that gently slope out from a fairly large flat bottom. These are deep-toned bowls with the largest ones playing near the bottom of the second octave and old extra-thick examples going as high as 200Hz near the top of the third octave. Jambati bowls are heavy, most weigh 3 to 6 Lbs.
