Bosphorus is a cymbal manufacturer based in Istanbul, Turkey. They are known for high quality cymbals that are still manufactured in the traditional hand-made way. Their cymbals are characteristically thinner than most modern cymbals and have a dark tone similar to the 'Old K' Zildjian cymbals of the 1950s and 1960s made when the K. Zildjian branch of the Zildjian family was still based in Turkey.

The company takes its name from the Bosphorus Strait where the city of Istanbul, formerly Constantinople is located.
