Steinway

Built in 1863, it represents the highest quality and most ornate square grand model that Steinway offered during that period. Crafted from exquisite Brazilian Rosewood, it showcases the elegant Rococo Victorian style. Unlike most other Steinway square grands, this piano features intricate carvings and has a fully finished backside, making it visually appealing from every angle. This design allows it to be displayed at the center of a room, whereas most square grands of that era had unfinished backs meant to be placed against a wall. Another standout feature of this piano is its full 88-note keyboard, which was rare for 1863 when most pianos only had 85 keys. Additionally, it boasts a full iron frame, a testament to its superior craftsmanship. This stunning instrument exemplifies the beauty and craftsmanship of mid-19th century American square grand pianos at their very best. 40.5 inches deep, 38.5 inches tall, 80 inches wide.
