The Golden Steinway
Steinway & Sons
An art case piano is two crafts in one instrument. The cabinetmaker and the gilder work on what you see. The piano maker works on what you hear. Neither forgives the other's mistakes.
This Steinway came to us as a case worth saving and an instrument that needed everything. It was rebuilt in our atelier over months rather than weeks, and the gilding was brought back by hand, panel by panel.
It is the piece we point at when someone asks what this house actually does. Enquire, and we will show you the file: what it looked like when it arrived, and what was done to it.
