Julius Blüthner Pianofortefabrik GmbH was established as a workshop in Leipzig, Germany in 1853, by Julius Blüthner. Julius was responsible for the invention of the aliquot string innovation, a unique sound, and guided the company to become the largest German piano maker by 1900. Blüthner built a one-of-a-kind piano for the Zeppelin LZ 129 Hindenburg in 1936 and replaced the classic use of cast iron for the harp plate with aluminium, which made it significantly lightweight.
Many renowned artists have owned Blüthner pianos as have worldwide royal family members They have made appearances in films and have been used in the recording of albums. Some specialist designs have been made including incorporating a reversal of the notes for left-handers.
The Blüthner range of grand pianos and upright pianos are still built in Germany and close to its original factory near Leipzig.
