Offered here is a rare antique Blüthner upright piano, built in Leipzig, Germany around 1873 (serial number 8154). Blüthner is one of Europe’s most prestigious piano makers, known for exceptional craftsmanship and a warm, singing tone.

This upright features:

Elegant wood case with rich grain and deep patina

Original brass candle sconces, a hallmark of 19th-century European design

Ornate Victorian/Edwardian detailing on the front panel

An 85-key keyboard (standard for the 19th century, one octave shorter than modern 88 keys)

Blüthner medallion plaque displaying the company’s international awards

Condition:

Keys and case show wear consistent with age

Plays, but like most 150-year-old uprights, it would benefit from a full tuning and regulation to be performance-ready

Structurally sound and makes a striking decorative statement even if not restored

Blüthner uprights of this era are highly sought after as decorative antiques and conversation pieces. With its historical charm and original features, this piano would make a stunning centerpiece in a home, library, or hospitality space.
