Antique upright piano by C. J. Quandt, Berlin =a STEAL!

Antique piano

An antique piano (I gather) by C. J. Quandt, made in Berlin. Distributed in the old Orange Free State by sole distributor Ivan H. Haarburger, from Bloemfontein.

Length: 148cm. Width: 66cm. Height: 131cm. Weight? No idea. 

It will need some attention, might need to be tuned. I don't play; one key's ivory overlay will need to be repaired/replaced - see photo. The two back castors are wobbling, should be repaired/replaced. I haven't had a specialist assess it.

Here's a rare opportunity to acquire this grand old lady for someone who will appreciate her, give her the TLC she deserves, then derive great pleasure from her, pass this scarce heirloom on.

Collect / send your courier with staff to Walkerville Manor, 1884 by appointment. 4 men placed it here. There are 5 steps up from my entertainment den. You see to its move: choice is good & it's all yours. IOW: please don't ask me about transport.
