Excellent craftsmanship
You can see the hammer marks clearly; this is real handcrafted work. The tone is complex and dark, perfect for water cymbal effects in quieter passages.

Unique tonal color
Very different from modern Turkish splashes. It has a quicker decay and a drier stick definition. Great addition for specific musical textures.

Great for accents
Bought the 15cm version for my jazz kit. It cuts through the mix beautifully without being too washy. Only minor issue was the shipping took a bit longer than expected.

Best splash in this price range
I was skeptical about the 'black cymbal' description, but the patina is genuine. It responds well to light touches and doesn't choke easily.

Authentic Beijing Sound
These cymbals have that distinct, raw character you only get from traditional Beijing forging. The black finish looks stunning on stage, and the splash cut is incredibly precise.

Beautiful and loud
The 19cm size offers a bit more body while still maintaining that sharp splash characteristic. Highly recommend for anyone looking for traditional Chinese percussion sounds.
Q: Does the black finish wear off over time?
A: The black patina is part of the oxidation process and is durable. However, natural aging may slightly alter the appearance, which many musicians find adds to the vintage character.
Q: Are these cymbals made of brass or bronze?
A: These are crafted from a traditional bronze alloy, not brass, which provides a richer and more complex tonal quality typical of Beijing gongs and cymbals.
Q: Do these come with a warranty?
A: Yes, all our handcrafted cymbals come with a 1-year manufacturer warranty against defects in material and workmanship, excluding normal wear and tear or damage from misuse.
Q: Can I use these for heavy rock music?
A: While they can be played loudly, these cymbals are designed with a thinner profile for quick response and are best suited for jazz, fusion, or traditional music rather than heavy metal.
Q: What is the difference between the 15cm and 19cm models?
A: The 15cm model offers a tighter, higher-pitched splash with faster decay, while the 19cm model provides a slightly broader sound with a bit more sustain and lower frequency content.
