These cymbals are made in Turkey from cast B20 bronze and hand hammered into shape by skilled Turkish cymbal smiths.

• Hand hammered in Turkey from cast B20 bronze — great at being transparent, soft and reactive without being weak, the Byzance Jazz 15 Thin Hihats lift your playing with smooth dryness and a slight dose of trashiness
