But from what I understand, the best ones are made in Canada and I think the cheaper ones are made in Turkey. Zildjian just means "cymbalmaker" in Turkish - so the name itself can't be copyrighted, only the trademark and the design can. And the family/business spit-up I mentioned resulted in "Sabian", who also make cymbals.Plenipotentiary meow!

Can they ban a product because of the picture on its bottle?
Democracy... sure... I'm sure people won't mind
It has nothing to do with mount. Ararat, they just want to damage our economy any way they can.
TURKISH COURT BANS SALE OF ARMENIAN BRANDY
ANKARA, APRIL 29, ARMENPRESS: An intellectual property court in Ankara, Turkey, has turned down a petition by the Yerevan Brandy Company against the Turkish Patent Institute that had banned the import of Armenian brandy to the country.
According to Turkish press, the court based its decision on the fact that bottles of Armenian brandy carry labels depicting Mount Ararat. They quoted the judge as saying that the picture of the mountain "could create wrong opinion among Turkish consumers as if Mountain Ararat is in Armenia."
Another cited reason was a same-name film by Canadian Armenian film director Atom Yegoyan, which is about the 1915 genocide.
Turkish media said Turkish Patent Institute is well aware that Armenians have claims to Mount Ararat and surrounding areas.
