China cymbal

[Luis Fok]

One of the coolest cymbals ever.
Loud,trashy,raw,aggresive,and explosive sound.
Have two mounting ways,inverted or un-inverted.
Jazz drummers commonly ride larger [chinas] with rivets,for an exotic ride,as rock drummers invert them and smash the holy fuck out of them.
Playing an un-inverted china can lead to cymbal cracking and breaking sticks.
There are many sizes from 6 all the way up to 27,the most commonly used being 16 and 18.
Some major brands I.E. [Zildjian],[Paiste],[Sabian],Meinl make china cymbals,but there is also a brand called Wuhan.Wuhans are more delicate than on brands, and do not have quality control(no Wuhan will sound the same).
