This is a very lightweight 18" Avedis with a thin profile. The original Zildjian ink logo is extremely faint but still visible under the right lighting, as shown in the photos.

I acquired this cymbal approximately 15 years ago along with an early-1970s Ludwig drum kit and other vintage Zildjian cymbals. I cannot confirm the exact age of this cymbal, so I am not representing it as being from a specific year or decade.

I have not been able to locate or read the factory-stamped trademark. It may be extremely faint or no longer readily visible, so I cannot use the stamp to confidently date the cymbal.

The cymbal has substantial natural patina, stick marks and cosmetic wear consistent with age and use. I have carefully run my fingers around the entire circumference and do not feel any cracks, chips or significant edge damage. The center hole also appears to be in good condition without significant keyholing.

I have intentionally not cleaned or polished the cymbal, preserving the natural patina and remaining original ink.
