I saw a more overthe top Steinway at the auctions 1 year ago. Gold leaf, three legs per corner and paintings all over,angels carved into the sides, its estimate was Ł40k I believe, it went for Ł20k.
great for the American market! They love that stuff

Out of interest, is the fall board the same date as the frame ?

I suspect that there's been some 'creative activity' on that front.

I would agree that it would more likely have had a "Hof Lieferant des Kaisers... Blah Blah... " and the older tall font.

Wow, what a cracker - straight out of Barbara Cartland's boudoir, methinks!

Innards look in good nick, though.

Its given me an idea for my Yammie, funnily enough (now, where did I put those old Wndsor & Newton oil paints.....?)
