Thanks!

The China is 13 inches and the other cymbal is 10 inches. It looks like the china has been repaired on the bottom on flat part near the hole, as it looks like there is some lead or something that was likely added at some point.

I'm not a fan of china's as they all sound harsh to me for some reason. But, it sounds okay, kinda thrashy I guess. I'm sure it was probably fine for what it was used for back in the day.

Both cymbals are DIRTY. I ran a little water over them and wiped them with a paper towel that quickly turned green :D

Thanks Quest. I was really pleased how nicely everything came out. This was the first real restoration project I did. So, I am pleased as punch.
