AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Large Etched Brass Chinese Dragon & Phoenix Singing Bowl
This impressive, vintage brass bowl is as much a musical instrument as it is a decorative centerpiece. Measuring 43 cm in diameter and 8 cm in height, it features a shallow, wide profile that produces a long-lasting, resonant, and beautiful chime when struck once.

Design Highlights
Intricate Etching: The interior is decorated with finely detailed medallions featuring traditional Chinese Dragons and Phoenixes, symbols of power and grace.

Calligraphy: Alternating medallions display stylized Chinese characters (Fu/Prosperity), adding to its cultural significance.

Condition & Quality
Condition: Very good vintage condition with minor surface wear consistent with age, enhancing its character.

Acoustics: Exceptional sustain and a clear, melodic tone.

Material: Solid brass construction.

An ideal addition for collectors of Asian art, practitioners of sound meditation, or as a striking statement piece for the home.

Your item will be carefully packaged and shipped with full track and trace for your peace of mind; local pickup is also warmly welcomed in Ekeren (Antwerp), Belgium.
