Early 19th Century Lyre Piano

This 19th century Klein lyre piano was an early version of an upright piano. The case is rosewood, with brass inlay. The Schubert Society also features a lyre piano in their collection. Just imagine playing Schubert on one of these beauties...

  1. Definitely Gorgeous! If I ever get to play on one I will have to make myself wear gloves. Beautiful piece rosewood!
