Steinweg, Braunschweig

A rare concert grand piano by Theodor Steinweg.

Braunschweig, circa 1875. Rosewood, 260 cm (10.5 in).

In the 1860s, Theodor Steinweg searched for a production facility in Europe until he founded the Hamburg Steinway factory in 1880. The acoustic design is the same as that of the Steinway & Sons Centennial, presumably incorporating parts from the New York Steinway factory. The action is a German design.

This grand piano is part of the history of Steinway & Sons.
