This piano is in exceptional original condition and even prior to restoration has a large, full tone quality. While there is no known connection between Farrand-Cecilian and Gustav Stickley, it is speculated that Farrand-Cecilian contracted Stickley to make the lamps and hardware for their special line of Craftsman style pianos. Two authentic Gustav Stickley hammered-glass lamps adorn either side of the keyboard, each lamp bearing the coveted Gustav Stickley brand mark.
The piano is made of beautiful quarter sawn oak with hammered copper hinges, pedals and hardware. The instrument was built by The Farrand-Cecilian Piano Company in 1914, quite late for a genuine Stickley piece. This incredible player piano is one of the finest true examples of the Stickley Arts & Crafts style we have ever seen.
