This unique Blüthner grand piano was probably designed so elaborately at the customer's request or as an exhibition instrument. It is equipped with the patented Aliquot system. The surface is finished in lemon wood with fine brass inlays. A very fine instrument. The polisher at Blüthner noted the date of completion as January 30, 1907. This magnificent grand piano has been restored and sounds fantastic again. The noble surface was polished with shellac. A beautiful instrument.
