Born at the heart of Turkish craftsmanship, Agean continues the tradition of hand-forged and hand-hammered cymbals. The R Series is positioned as the brand's "silent" line: it aims to preserve the grain and harmonics of B20 Bronze while controlling volume through specific perforation. The Natural version emphasizes a raw aesthetic and a very organic feel under the stick.
