For customers residing in Japan
This is a set of two 16" pieces of K Zirjan, and by extension, the roots of the Zirjan company, produced in the former Constantinople (now Istanbul).
We assume that this was manufactured during the 1923-30 production period because of the MADE IN TUEKEY stamp.
* I thought the stamp type might be STAMP4, but I could not identify it.

Of course, there was no concept of "hi-hat" at that time, so it was probably a kind of matching cymbal, and the center hole is about 9mm, so it cannot be used with the current HH stand.
However, considering its rarity, we are selling it as is without any particular modification.

It is a bit thick for a 16", but it looks very interesting when used as a HH, and it has a very dark, traditional hand-hammered sound.
The complex overtones, trashy resonance, and rich tone that includes all ranges of sound, is a sound with depth that would have definitely been at the top of cymbal manufacturing methods of the time.
Even now, 100 years later, this cymbal still has an overwhelmingly majestic tone that will never fade away.

Miraculously for a cymbal of this generation, there is no hole shaving, no damage to the edges, and only a dull smudge, indicating that the cymbal must have been cared for quite well.
It would be extremely difficult to find a cymbal of this generation in this condition.
It is by no means a practical cymbal to use as is, but it is a very valuable cymbal in terms of cymbal history.
Conversion modification to HH is also recommended (please consult with us about this).

Size: 16 inches
Item rank: B+: Some scratches, but no problem in normal use.
Kジルジャン、ひいてはジルジャン社のルーツともいえる、旧コンスタンチノープル(現イスタンブール)で生産されたKジルの16インチの2枚セットです。
MADE IN TUEKEYの刻印があることから、1923-30年の製造時期であったと仮定しております。
* スタンプ種類はSTAMP4かなと思いましたが、特定しきれませんでした。

もちろんこの時期はハイハットという概念もなかったので、いわゆる合わせシンバルの類だったと思われ、センターホールが9mm程度と、現在のHHスタンドでは到底使えません。
ただ、今回希少性を考え、特に加工することなくこのままで販売いたします。

16インチとしてはやや厚めですが、HHとして使うと非常に面白そうではあり、伝統のハンドハンマリングで製作されたことによるかなりダークで
複雑な倍音とトラッシュな響き、そしてあらゆるレンジを含んだ豊かな音色は、間違いなく当時のシンバル製法の頂点にいたであろう奥行きのあるサウンド。
100年を経た現在でも、決して色褪せない圧倒的な荘厳な音色が感じられるシンバルです。

この世代のシンバルとしては奇跡的にホールの削れ、エッジのダメージもなく、くすみ程度の汚れしかないのはかなり大事にされてきたのでしょう。
このコンディションでこの世代のシンバルを手に入れることは到底困難と思われます。
このままで使用するには決して実用的と言えないシンバルですが、シンバルの歴史を知る上でもかなり貴重なシンバルと言えます。
HHへの転用改造もおすすめいたします(こちらのご相談も承ります)

サイズ:16インチ
商品ランク:B+:多少傷はあるが通常使用する用途において問題なし
