LONGMAN AND BRODERIP; A LATE 18TH CENTURY SQUARE PIANO

156cm wide; 57cm deep; 86cm high

Estimate: £100 - £150
Hammer price: £30
Bidding ended. Lot has been sold.

The piano was fully restored in the 90s, and is in a fair condition.

All the strings are in good condition, but four or five keys are sticking (partly because of a couple of slightly bent levers and the warped or ‘smiling’ case). these issues still need addressing, as well as the action which needs attending to. The piano plays, albeit imperfectly, and can be tuned (tuning hammer included).

Footnotes:
This lot contains ivory and has been registered in accordance with the Ivory Act (section10). Reference K4CGJ9FJ
