Thread: Grand piano restoration

My wife is a pianist. We've had this 1910 7'4" grotrian concert grand for a number of years and finally getting around to restoring it.

A professional is doing the action work and we are doing the casework.

Here is the 2nd coat of gold gilt on the frame. Ready for a few more swipes of ebony shellac on the inside case before pins, strings and action goes back in.

Not too many of these around. Steinweg's brother was also involved in the business before going to NY and changing name to Steinway.

It's a once in a lifetime project for us made possible under the tuteledge of Kevin the piano tech.

The hunting credits are building up well with this one.
