The Antique Series marries the two lathing patterns of the Traditional Series and the Turk Series. This Unique family combines the brilliance of a classic, lathed cymbals and the complex dryness of a raw, unlathed cymbals. The varied playing surfaces provide a wide range of sonic textures.

These Bosphorus Antique Crashes have a slightly mellowed sustain due to the banded lathing on the top sides of these cymbals. The Bosphorus Medium Thin (MT) weight has a higher pitch and a longer sustain. The Medium (M) is ideal for moderate volume or mid range applications.
