It looks like an early 20th century Steinway.

What a waste.

CROWN ORCHESTRAL GRAND PIANO
These pianos are unique in that they have 4 pedals...the additional pedal operates a mechanism that allows the piano to have an old fashion "honky tonk" sound, often associated with Ragtime music of the era.

"Storytone", 1939
The Storytone piano was built in 1939 in a joint venture between Story & Clark and RCA - the piano has normal strings and action but no soundboard - the sound is amplified by (microphonic) pickups and a speaker system making it the world's first practical electric piano. The sound is very beautiful considering its design during the infancy of amplified instruments. As you can see the design is striking - art deco at its most radical. The Piano Seat could optionally have a Phonograph and Radio built in.

Seriously lovely piano.

It looks like a regular piano.

It's really now just the shell of the piano and is used as a home office/desk.

Plenty of room in back for electronics, file cabinets, etc. Casters allow for easy access to back. The front piece lifts up for easy access to top shelf area.

Laurence Alma-Tadema's cottage piano
made to his own design by John Broadwood & Sons for use in Townshend House, overlooking Regent's Park. In 1874 it was returned to the maker's after an explosion (caused by a canal boat loaded with gunpowder blew up on Regent's Canal) for repairs, and in the same year Alma-Tadema painted the three decorative panels.

Conversation between a piano and its Bench. Well it is supposed to be the famous low chair, not having that would be enough to annoy any sensitive, thinking piano!
