K Constantinople Vintage Orchestral pairs give the percussionist a cymbal voice for pronounced crashes and quicker passages. They project a drier sound, with more articulation for executing short, syncopated rhythms. Though classified as 'medium light', Vintage K's are generally heavier in comparison to other Orchestral K's, so their sound can be described as a little more 'platey'. Resonating with complex harmonics, Vintage Orchestral cymbals possess a bold, dark sound that is characteristic of all K Constantinople hand cymbals.

Developed as the company's flagship series, K Constantinople cymbals are crafted to emulate the handmade cymbals Zildjian produced in the early 20th Century while still in Turkey. Designed to develop a more complex character as they age, each cymbal is hand-hammered, producing unique attributes even between cymbals of the same size and model.
