Frederich Grotrian joined Theodor Steinweg (son of Heinrich Steinweg) to manufacture pianos. Heinrich moved to New York and changed his name to Henry, and changed Steinweg to Steinway. The rest is history! Both piano companies have been producing world-class instruments over centuries. Grotrian-Steinweg is produced in Germany, and Steinway is produced both in Germany and New York. This is an extraordinary piano with a gorgeous rosewood polish finish. The wood grain is breathtaking. The hand-carvings of the case are also a lost art. The piano also has rare one piece ivory keytops in immaculate condition. The sound of this instrument is pure and warm. There is a richness and evenness of tone throughout all registers that is the result of one of the world’s great piano scale designs. The soundboard has visible seams and has excellent crown with solid connection to all the ribs. This is the heart and soul of the piano which is what gives this instrument its unique sound. The German action is on a world-class level of performance. The piano is all original and shows extremely minor wear anywhere inside or out! This is truly a piano find for someone who appreciates the finest pianos available at any price. Incidentally, Steinway sued Grotrian-Steinweg and won! However, in the rest of the world, they still go by their original name, Grotrian-Steinweg. See More of my Used Pianos for Sale. All Pianos include a matching bench.
