Louis Zwicki Danish Rosewood Pianette, c. 1960's
Located in Norwalk, CT

Louis Zwicki's dedication to precision and artistry is evident in every inch of this pianette, which dates from the 1960's. The luxurious rosewood veneer is masterfully shaped, showcasing the natural beauty and warmth of the wood grain.

Whether you are a seasoned pianist or an aficionado of Mid-Century design, this instrument promises not only a melodic journey but also a visual symphony of craftsmanship and style.

Bang & Olufsen BeoSound 9000 6-CD Tuner Hi-fi System 1990s by David Lewis
Located in Montecatini Terme, IT
Hi-fi system BeoSound 9000 6-CD/Tuner with two loudspeakers (Beolab 1).
The BeoSound 900 can be placed either vertically (mounted on it own support or directly on the wall) or horizontally.
The CD's are easily loaded and held by spring suspended jaws, discs not in play can be replaced without interrupting the playback. The auto-positioning feature ensures that CDs are always returned to the position in which they were first placed.
The Glass-covered aluminum plate holds the CDs and the rails for the CD carriage, while a backlit acrylic plate illuminates the CD currently playng.
BeoSound 9000 offrs unprecedents flexibility to ensure the same uniform movement of the glass cover regardless of the placement of the BeoSound 900 vertically or horizontally, upright or flat. To counteract the effect of the gravity, a digital time control constantly monitors the movements of the cover and adjust the motor, keeping the complete movement wiithin 3,5 and 4 seconds.
Such an abundance of fast moving mechanics means that special measures have been taken to ensure that BeoSound 9000 is safe to operate. Small prismatic lenses are placed at each end of the aluminium frame, controlling an infrared beam across the front of BeoSound 9000. If the beam is violated, the CD clamper will stop immediately.
If the glass door is lifted while the clamper is in motion, it will decelerate immediately. A power failure feature ensures that the clamper is not damaged in a gravitational free-fall, if BeoSound 9000 is mounted vertically.
Ingenious engineering solutions and intricate mechanical movements in a product that continues to surprise and delight users today – and all this from the inspiration of old vinyl records spinning on the record player’s turntable...

Mid-Century Modern Wifi Speaker: Bose 901 Redux
By bose
Located in Philadelphia, PA
This 901 redux began as a 1970 era Bose 901 carcass that was reconstructed into a high dispersion, two-way bass reflect wireless speaker. An onboard 50-watt amplifier provides power and a cannibalized Sonos control system manages equalization and streaming. The speaker enclosure is refinished in satin tung oil and fitted with acoustically transparent natural linen grill. The 901 redux delivers digital streaming convenience and a midcentury aesthetic.
How does the 901 redux sound? Remarkably analog in warmth and clarity. This is due, in part, to the sonic characteristics of wood composite versus plastic --and the high quality of the Danish made Peerless drivers. Performance is enhanced by Sonos Trueplay that optimizes EQ for each unique acoustic space. If you do not agree simply return the speaker for a full refund.

Antique and Vintage Musical Instruments
Pay tribute to a history of rich and diverse musical traditions that have taken shape all over the world by decorating your home with a collection of antique and vintage musical instruments.
Whether you’re playing them or merely displaying them, vintage musical instruments, when cared for properly, can be a wonderful addition to any space. At between four and five feet in length, an elegant early-1900s Steinway & Sons baby grand piano will undoubtedly steal the show if you’re thinking of yielding some precious real estate to one of these American classics, but maybe you’re simply shopping for art to warm the bare walls of your new apartment or weekend home.
For your living room, maybe you’ve already hunted down portraits by Gered Mankowitz, a celebrated 1960s-era photographer who spent his life capturing iconic images of music’s biggest stars. If you’ve got more space to work with there — or perhaps you need some entertainment room ideas — consider positioning an old guitar as a focal point. If a room has no distinguishing architectural features, you could create a prominent focal point with trending paint colors, stylish shelving, an arrangement of flowers or by wall-mounting a spectacularly aging early-20th-century guitar or other stringed instrument.
Alternatively, much in the way that you might group a collection of artwork to hang salon-style, with a little help from strong hanging wire or some wall hooks, vintage brass instruments such as a gong, French horn or trumpet can help elevate a home office or complement the efforts you’ve made to ensure a welcoming vibe in your home’s entryway. Bells or antique wind instruments can add provocative metallic contrasts to dark woods as tabletop decorative objects. Think of them as eye-catching ornamental flourishes that you can bring to end tables in a common area, to the top of a desk or to a mid-century storage cabinet.
Bring culture and creativity into your space with decades-old plywood tabletop radios or musical instruments from all over the world — be they drums from Africa or harps from France. Even if you’re not exactly getting the band back together, we can promise that the range of antique and vintage instruments on 1stDibs can help strike a meaningful chord in your interior design plan.
