Collection: Christman Pianos

Christman pianos have a rich history dating back to the mid-1880s when the company was established by Peter Christman in New York City. Known for their high-grade and often elaborately designed instruments, Christman pianos were crafted with meticulous attention to detail and used exotic woods, making them some of the most luxurious pianos of their time. The company was officially incorporated in 1911 by Peter Christman's sons, who continued the tradition of quality craftsmanship.

Christman pianos, player pianos, and grand pianos have been recognized worldwide as instruments of high grade. They are commended by many foremost piano merchants for their superior craftsmanship and musicality. The Christman "Studio" grand, which is only 5 feet long, is notable for its powerful tone, comparable to larger instruments. The slogan "The First Touch Tells" has become familiar in musical circles, emphasizing the attractive tone quality of Christman pianos.

The Christman Reproducing Grand is a recognized triumph in piano manufacture. The Christman Studio Grand holds an enviable place among the dainty little instruments of the grand design, possessing a powerful tone of agreeable resonance, making it one of the most successful instruments with both trade and the public. Despite their high cost, Christman pianos were celebrated for their superior craftsmanship and musicality, ensuring that surviving instruments are still highly valued today.
