I spotted this bowl in a client's garage when I was keeping some tools ready to finish the job the following day.It was stored in the garage because her grandchildren would not leave it alone when they visited. Before everybody shouts that it is Tibetan, the owner insisted that it was manufactured and purchased in Nepal.It was struck with a wooden handle. Rode NT-4 > FEL battery pre-amp > Zoom H2 line in.

This was amazing - it is hard to believe that it lasts so long. I was looking for a sound to end a meditation and this is helpful. There is a harshness to it but the reverberations go on forever.
Thanks!

Thank you for the information. It sounds like you found an old treasure in her garage.
Perhaps there is some silver in the alloy, making it lighter? I think I've heard silver is reputed to make fine bells. Silver is high density, so if the bowl seems heavy for its size that could be some confirmation.
Again, thanks for posting this.
