This is a beautiful, factory matched, pair of Constantinople K. Zildjian crash cymbals. Zildjian crash cymbals from the early 20th century with a Constantinople stamp have a legendary sound that is highly sought after by orchestral players. This pair of cymbals are a fine example of that sound. Dark, warm, and powerful for their size. At 14 3/8" in diameter, weighing 1151/1277 grams, these cymbals are a versatile pair that can cover a surprising amount of the repertoire. The plates are relatively flat with small bells making them easy to play. There are no cracks or issues of any kind. It's a well matched pair of plates that produce a sound which no modern pair of cymbals can match. This pair will make a great addition to any player's crash cymbal collection.
