Steinway & Sons Model B – 1878 | A Rare Grand Piano from the Golden Era
We are pleased to present an exceptional Steinway & Sons Model B grand piano, manufactured in 1878 — a remarkable instrument from the early golden period of Steinway craftsmanship.
This historic Model B represents the evolution of 19th-century piano building, combining powerful projection with refined tonal character. Instruments from this era are highly valued for their musical depth, individuality, and historical significance.
The Model B (approximately 211 cm / 6’11”) has long been considered one of the most versatile grand pianos ever designed — ideal for both concert repertoire and private salons. Even in its early production years, Steinway’s engineering standards were already setting benchmarks in scale design, structural strength, and tonal balance.
