Crystal Crystal Piano
Anonymous first half of the 19th century.
To this day, very few examples of crystal pianos are preserved in the world. In this instrument, the sound is produced by percussion of crystal plates by small hammers, connected to the keyboard through a rudimentary action. The extension of the keyboard is 4 octaves.The shape of the cabinet presents some aesthetic refinement. The same refinement is not found, however, in the mechanical apparatus.
