This is a rare and beautiful early Phonoliszt piano. It is mostly original. There are brass applications on the consoles and the upper front panel - and the beautiful original chandeliers are also present. The body has numerous defects. On YouTube, a colleague has recorded an identical Phonoliszt piano after restoration - this gives an impression of the possibilities.
