Zildjian Thin Finger Cymbals, Pair
Pair of Zildjian thin finger cymbals in cast bronze, with a piercing ring that carries over an orchestra.
Zildjian Thin Finger Cymbals are a pair of small cast bronze cymbals, played by hand against each other. Their piercing ring carries far enough to be heard in the middle of a large orchestra.
What sets it apart
- Pair in Zildjian cast bronze
- Piercing ring that cuts through
- Also made in a thick version
Small, but heard
Anything the size of your palm tends to vanish in a full tutti. Zildjian casts these in its bronze alloy and aims them squarely at big ensembles: the ring stays sharp and rises above the other sections. The thin pair has its own colour; Zildjian also makes a thick pair, which it describes as higher in pitch.

Frequently asked questions
- What are Zildjian finger cymbals made of?
- Zildjian's cast bronze alloy, as the maker states for this thin pair.
- Are finger cymbals the same as crotales?
- No. A crotale is a disc tuned to one note and mounted on a holder or bar. Finger cymbals come as a pair and are struck against each other.
- How do I choose between the thin and the thick pair?
- Zildjian describes the thick pair as higher in pitch. The thin pair is built for a piercing ring that carries through a large ensemble.
