Antique Malachite and Ormolu Parlor Grand Piano by J. Becker

Description: This stunning piano was produced by the esteemed Russian firm, Becker Bros., in the late 19th, early 20th Century. Though the piano is well over 100 years old, it has subsequently been veneered with malachite and mounted with ormolu of a distinctively 19th Century French Neoclassical manner.The Becker Bros. were renowned as one of the best piano manufacturers in St. Petersburg in the late 1800s. The company was founded by Jacob Becker, a Dutchman of German origin. Later, the facility became the location of the Krasny Oktyabr Factory. Grand pianos manufactured by the Becker company were highly esteemed by Russian aristocracy and musicians alike, including the last Czar of Russia, Nikolai Romanov, Pyotr Tchaikovsky, and Sergei Rachmaninoff."...Preference should be given to Becker pianos, since they produce soft, pleasant notes. At the same time, they are distinguished by the remarkably forceful sound that they can produce...”Adolf van Henselt’s piano of choice was also Becker, as he had not one but two in his studio in St. Petersburg. J. Becker is perhaps the best known piano manufacturer from Tsarist Russia to this day. At this very moment, the sister to this piano currently resides in one of Vladimir Putin's palaces.
