What a beautiful old house. Maybe you can buy the pianos and get the house for free! Or something like that...

Using a real harp as a reference, and considering the need to let the hammers hit the strings, the soundboard must be just behind the kick board.

Cool! I don't know whether to play this one, or try to balance it on my head (Reference to a dance where I balance a lit candelabra)!

I like the overall look of this one, any idea what/when/who?

The listing is:

JUVENOIS, PARIS, 1891

Here's another from the same site - it looks ready for a puppet show!



Cabinet Piano by Clementi & Co, London , ca. 1820.
