DESCRIPTION

Chickering was the first piano manufacturer in America. Chickering has long been known having built some of the finest instruments in American history!

This piano is a classic “Parlor Grand” size piano in the double spade-leg style. The Parlor Grand was slightly larger than a baby grand piano, offering a rich full sound without being too large for the average home. This piano is made of beautiful mahogany wood under the old deteriorated finish, and will be quite beautiful after restoration. The piano can be finished in any shade of mahogany a buyer might desire.

This piano will be restored to perfection, inside and out, and will rival the tone and touch of better quality grand pianos built today. Originally built as an AMPICO reproducing player grand piano, the original player mechanisms were removed from it many years ago. This piano would be ideal for the Pianomation player system which would make it a player piano once again! The original matching bench is included.
