Zildjian

Behold, my hi hats!



The company was formed in 1623 in the Ottoman Empire. These cymbals aren't quite that old.

  1. How unusual to see the name Avedis! That's was my uncle's name!

  3. I'm really curious to hear how it sounds! I´m sure it sounds great, and I´m sure that many have been delighted by your music.

  4. I wouldn't like to wear it as a hat though. With my luck every colleague will start banging on it!

  5. Love the angle of this shot. Amazing that a business can be around nearly 4 centuries!

  6. I have never heard of anyone named Avedis! I learned something (always a good thing).
    The cats never seem delighted by my 'music'.
    I once heard that Zildjian is the oldest operating company in the US. Unfortunately I could not find any facts to back that up before I posted this.
    Mara - A photo of this on you as a hat would be fantabulous.
