Review: "If you’ve ever wondered about the effect of various lathing patterns on a cymbal, check out this one. The lathed rings, which remind me of strings of beads or thin gold chains, are the reason this cymbal emits undulating, high-pitched tones. At quiet volumes, this effect is similar to that of a riveted cymbal. But this is a medium-weight cymbal and would work best in a moderately loud band. Here it will throw its tone over a considerable distance without breaking up into distortion (something I proved on a loud gig). A moderate touch on the lip yields a full splashy tone, while a ride on the bow is tastefully replete in harmonics."
