Provenance:
This piano was signed off by Quality Control in the C BECHSTEIN Berlin factory in the fall
of 1912 – this is one of the best ages for a Bechstein, just before the wars when the industry
was at its peak.
With its outstanding marquetry art-case it occupied the pride of place in a German parlour,
where it was extensively played and enjoyed by many pianists, before finding its way across
Europe – including a visit to Milan – to the UK where it resided very happily until it’s
devoted owner could no longer house it and we were privileged to be entrusted with its care.
Having been thoroughly and meticulously restored it is once again the beautiful, lively and
responsive instrument that its original maker would be proud of.
