Vintage Constantinopel Identification Help!!

Posts: 9 Threads: 3

Hello,

I have had this cymbal for a while now. I have no idea as to what brand it is.

All I know is that it is a heavy cymbal, heavily hammered, that it has two signatures on the bottom side of the cup, and that it has a constantinopel stamp on the top side with a star above it.

See Pictures!

Anyone know what kind of cymbal this is??

I have heard before that it is an Italian brand??

Any feedback would be much appreciated.

THnx

I would say this is a Italian cymbal...........

Lots of the OLD ones were quite heavy.

Unlike A.Zildjian Co,it took them a long time to realize people wanted thin ones.

Well,come to think of it.........lots of the OLD K's from Constantinople were heavy too,and yours does say that on it twice,so yours might be some obscure company from there.
