DEPOSITS: The restoration of this instrument has not been completed. A 30% deposit is required on instruments pending restoration. This deposit holds the instrument and keeps it from being offered to other clients, and it also makes that piano’s restoration a priority. Once we complete the restoration, we invite the client to visit our shop to see and hear the piano. If the client is unable to visit our shop, we will send professional photos and videos of the piano for review. The client then has the option of paying the balance and purchasing the piano, transferring their balance to another piano in our shop, or getting a full refund for their deposit. The client is never at risk.

Description

This lovely little square grand piano was built by Calvin Edwards in Portland, ME in about 1860. Calvin Edwards built a very small number of instruments compared to most 19th Century piano builders, and his instruments are exceedingly rare today.
This piano would have been considered a “Boudoir” size square piano, not quite as large as the typical 19th Century square grand. It has a lovely delicate “harp-like” tone quality reminiscent to what one would hear in period movies like “Little Women” or “Cold Mountain”. These pianos were designed for small intimate gatherings and were often the center of entertainment and culture in the Victorian home.
The instrument is made of beautifully carved Brazilian Rosewood and is of the Empire Revival style. It has been restored to like-new condition, inside and out. The original matching piano stool is included.
